Abused, undocumented children are one of the most vulnerable segments of our society. Aside from the physical scars, they are unable to work or go to college. This dark past and dim future leads to their delinquency. Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS) provides these children a means to citizenship. Through education of the legal community, outreach, and legal services, my project assists eligible children in obtaining SIJS through the Delinquency Court. Additionally, clients are provided with resources to help them achieve future goals.
