Welcome to the D.C. Schools Project at Georgetown University's Center for Social Justice Research, Teaching and Service (CSJ)!  We are a literacy organization that has been serving Washington, D.C.'s low-income immigrant community since 1984.  Each year, about 175 Georgetown students serve 150 K-12 students and more than 100 adult English as a Second Language (ESL) students in D.C. public schools, community-based organizations and homes of immigrant families.

This is an education and literacy training for low income families. 

Since 1997, Poder has responded to the educational needs of immigrants in the primarily Latino areas of Pilsen/Little Village and Back of the Yards, on Chicago’s southwest side.  In less than ten years, 4,500 students have attended our tuition free classes.

The Post-Deportation Human Rights Project, based at the Center for Human Rights and International Justice at Boston College, is a pilot program designed to address the harsh effects of current U.S. deportation policies. The Project aims to conceptualize an entirely new area of law, providing direct representation to individuals who have been deported and promoting the rights of deportees and their family members through research, policy analysis, human rights advocacy, and training programs.

The Marquette Immigration Law Association (MILA) connects Marquette University Law School to Milwaukee’s immigrant and refugee community by recruiting and organizing students to volunteer with community agencies that provide free and low-cost legal services for immigrants and refugees.
