Meet and Greet: KIND Providence

Kids in Need of Defense (KIND) is an international nongovernmental organization working to ensure that all unaccompanied immigrant children have legal counsel. Unaccompanied children around the world are fleeing violence and persecution in their home countries -- many of these children come to Rhode Island looking for safety and security.

That's where you come in! KIND depends heavily on pro bono attorneys to represent unaccompanied children in Rhode Island. No prior experience with immigration law or with representing children is required! KIND will provide you with a dedicated mentor, filing samples, and guidance throughout the life of the case. Your work with the children will allow them to find safety, security, and stability in the US and help them become vital members of the Rhode Island Community!

This Pro Bono Month, join us to learn more about volunteering with unaccompanied immigrant children! There will be a brief program beginning at 4:30, which will provide a more in depth overview of the KIND Volunteer experience.
