Catholic Migration Office

The Catholic Migration Office assists immigrants in a variety of immigration-related issues. The Catholic Migration Service also offers English as a Second Language (ESL) and citizenship test preparation classes and occupational training.

New Projects:

1. Immigrant Tenant Advocacy Project (ITAP);
2. The Linea Laboral,
a hotline run in partnership with the Department of Labor and the Mexican Consulate, for the purpose of advising immigrants regarding violations of labor rights (fair wage issues, worker safety, etc.)

Any attorney interested in volunteering for these two programs should contact Managing Attorney, Rob McCreanor, at mccreanor1976@yahoo.com.
