The Immigration Project is a dynamic immigration legal aid organization located in Normal, Illinois, with a satellite office in Champaign, Illinois. The agency is the largest non-profit immigration legal services agency located in downstate Illinois with immigration attorneys on staff and serves clients in 86 counties across central and southern Illinois. We understand the importance of immigration for our communities and believe in equal access to fairness and justice. Our goal is to advocate with, not for, our clients and walk alongside them through the legal process as they make the best decisions for their lives.
The Immigration Project is seeking to add a Staff Attorney to support our expanding services.
Job Overview
The Staff Attorney will be joining/assisting to create a new universal representation model program within The Immigration Project (TIP). TIP recently joined a new initiative supported by the governor of Illinois to try to eliminate unrepresented litigants in front of the Chicago Immigration Court. We, along with other immigration legal aids in Illinois, are accepting cases for detained individuals in front of the Chicago Immigration Court on a merits-blind basis based on capacity. This closely aligns with our current program representing children both in detention, but as well as in their removal cases in front of the Chicago Immigration Court. As the sole legal service provider for a children’s detention center in Central Illinois, we provide holistic services to children both while they are detained in the low-security facility as well as to all of those released from detention within our service area. Therefore, the Staff Attorney will be responsible for representing both detained adults and children, as well as children released from detention in their removal matters to attempt to secure immigration relief.
The ideal candidate for this role has practical experience with hearings and preparing casework, speaks and writes fluently in Spanish and English, is highly organized and detail-oriented, and has a connection, personal or professional, to the immigration process. This position is for you if you are looking to join a movement to not only end detention, but ensure every immigrant has a right to counsel, enjoys working with children as clients, have the ability to communicate effectively with various audiences, and is a proactive team member who can self-manage a high volume of work.
