EOIR, Oct. 17, 2023
"SUMMARY: The Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) invites immigration law school clinical communities and pro bono organizations to attend a national stakeholder meeting for an open discussion on how to increase pro bono representation in immigration courts with Dedicated Dockets. At this meeting, EOIR seeks input and recommendations on how the agency can better encourage and facilitate pro bono advocacy, either in person or remotely, at the following immigration courts with established Dedicated Dockets: Boston, Denver, Detroit, El Paso, Los Angeles – N. Los Angeles Street, Miami, New York – Broadway, New York – Varick, Newark, San Diego, San Francisco, and Seattle. See EOIR’s Policy Memorandum 21-23 for more details on this initiative. EOIR continues to work to increase the representation rate and the number of practitioners available to represent noncitizens in immigration proceedings. Practitioners who volunteer their time to help those unable to afford counsel are a critical part of that effort. Please join us for a targeted discussion with the goal of strengthening pro bono representation for the Dedicated Dockets. DATE: Oct. 26, 2023 TIME: 1 p.m. – 2 p.m. Eastern Time LOCATION: Live via Webex - Meeting Registration All media inquiries should be directed to pao.eoir@usdoj.gov."
