Our Impact
Program Highlights
ASYLUM PROGRAM
Ongoing attacks and unpredictable changes have decimated the U.S. asylum system, but ILAP is committed to helping as many people as possible make their rightful claims and find safety from persecution.
Our Asylum Program reaches more than 1,000 Mainers each year, including through representation by our dedicated Pro Bono Panel members, community workshops, and more.
IMMIGRANT CHILDREN’S PROJECT
The path to lawful immigration status is often a complicated one, and ILAP believes that no child or young person should face the immigration system alone.
Through our Immigrant Children’s Project, we offer legal representation and assistance to more than 150 immigrant children and youth in Maine each year.
RURAL MAINE PROJECT
Maine is a large, rural state, and ILAP thinks everyone should have equal access to immigration legal services no matter where they live.
Our Rural Maine Project combines direct and virtual outreach in all sixteen counties so immigrant community members can understand their rights and get the legal help they need to thrive.
SUPPORT OUR WORK
ILAP’s strong network of support makes our work possible. Join our community of supporters so Maine’s immigrant community members can get the legal help they need to thrive, while we advocate for a better and more equitable system. Make a gift today to help advance justice for immigrants in Maine!
