LEGAL SERVICES
Translators Needed
Use your translation and/or legal skills to help further our humanitarian mission. You can sign up to assist young people applying for temporary work authorization, survivors of trafficking or other crimes applying for U Visa, or young children seeking Special Immigrant Juvenile Status or Asylum. We can provide you with the training and information about different types of humanitarian legal work, and then you can assist our staff attorneys with application preparation and learn more under their supervision.
Email Hannah (Hannah@tnjfon.org) if you’re interested.
Pro Bono Lawyers Needed
If you are a licensed attorney interested in providing pro bono services to Afghan evacuees, Vanderbilt University has a registration form to volunteer. When TNJFON cannot accept an asylum case, after screening and intake, they will be paired with one of the volunteer lawyers coordinated by Vanderbilt.
HOSPITALITY HOSTS NEEDED
Do you want to help at our legal clinics but you are not a law student, interpreter or lawyer? Perhaps you can be a hospitality hosts. Each clinic day will involve as many as 36 individuals volunteering their time and skills. Fresh fruit, bars, nuts, coffee, pastries, water bottles or seltzers, . . . would all help keep everyone energized. If you are interested in donating food and drink to keep the volunteers nourished throughout the day at each clinic, reach out to director@tnjfon.org.
