The Immigration Advocates Network (IAN) is excited to announce its fifth annual e-conference fundraiser, "Cutting Edge Issues in Immigration Law." Join us for a week-long series of interactive online trainings with national experts on representing children, administrative advocacy, entry & admission, U visas, and provisional waivers. We explore the issues through the lens of current events and the latest legal developments. In this session, the panel will discuss legal protections for children in removal proceedings and steps to take if the government breaks those rules. The panel will focus on practice strategies for advocates. The panelists are Helen Lawrence, Law Office of Helen Lawrence; Homero Lopez, Managing Attorney, Catholic Charities - Archdiocese of New Orleans; Justin Tullius, Managing Attorney, RAICES Corpus Christi; and, Ryan Humble, staff attorney, RAICES San Antonio. The moderator is Rex Chen, Mentor Attorney, Safe Passage Project.
