The Working Families Legal Clinic

Our pro bono Working Families Legal Clinic is a vital resource for workers across the Chicago metro area. It offers legal support and guidance to address issues related to Employment and Immigration Law.

By providing access to free legal expertise, advocacy, and representation, this program enables workers to regularize their status, assert their rights, and seek justice. Through collaboration with lawyers, community organizations, and volunteers, the clinic not only helps individual workers but also contributes to building a more just and equitable labor landscape in Chicago.
