Agents of Change: Civil Rights Advocacy Initiative | National Immigration Project

A group of volunteers based out of a USC Dornsife program along with the National Immigration Project and Orange Law Office have established a free hotline to help those with in-person immigration hearings file motions to move their appointments online, which prevents defendants from being seized by federal agents when they show up for court in person.

The hotline is available for use by anyone, anywhere, and may be reached at 888-462-5211.

Services are available in both English and Spanish.
