During Pro Bono Week, the Commission on Immigration (COI) is proud to recognize our 2024 Pro Bono Champions: volunteers who worked on pro bono projects with COI, ProBAR, the Immigration Justice Project (IJP) or the Children’s Immigration Law Academy (CILA) during the past year. Pro Bono Week is a time to celebrate volunteers who have dedicated their time and expertise to helping some of the most vulnerable members of our community. Pro bono assistance is essential to upholding the due process rights of migrants and asylum-seekers, especially in the light of the complexities and challenges of the evolving immigration legal landscape. We are grateful to the volunteers who have provided life-changing support to our clients this year.
