In response to the recent immigration executive orders, AABA will co-host a joint clinic with the Council on American-Islamic Relations, the Iranian American Bar Association, the South Asian Bar Association of Northern California, Asian Pacific Islander Legal Outreach, and Asian Americans Advancing Justice – Asian Law Caucus. The clinic will provide legal immigration advice, naturalization assistance, and know your rights presentations.

 

The clinic will be on March 4, 2017 at the Louis B. Mayer Lounge in UC Hastings, 200 McAllister Street, San Francisco, from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Setup will be 8:00-10:00 AM, and cleanup will be 4:00-5:00pm.

 

If you would like to volunteer at this clinic, please fill out this form: https://goo.gl/forms/3gm1GFV4W5pvckaA3. Training will be provided for volunteers on 2/28/17 at UC Hastings from 6:00-7:30 PM (mainly for attorneys and law students). We especially have a need for expert immigration attorneys who can review naturalization forms after completion.

Information Sessions on ‘Muslim Ban’

We continue to hear from countless community members who have concerns and questions about upcoming travel and the impact of the ‘Muslim Ban’. While we are happy to answer questions as they come into our Civil Rights Department, we are also hosting and participating in a wave of emergency information sessions.
