Description

Ukraine, Afghanistan, Haiti: Refugees in Crisis & How Lawyers Can Help

 

Newly arriving refugee populations – Afghans, Haitians and Ukrainians – are resettling in Nashville and need legal help to establish stability for themselves and their families. This presentation will provide an overview of at-risk populations and the basics of immigration and asylum law needed to take on a case with no prior immigration or asylum experience required. At the end of training, we will provide options to match with a family or individual who has been screened for asylum eligibility and is waiting for representation. This collaborative training is co-hosted by Bass, Berry & Sims; Tennessee Justice for Our Neighbors; and the Vanderbilt Immigration Practice Clinic.

This will be an in-person event from noon to 1:00pm Central Time.

Registration for this free event closes May 21, 2022.
