In March, Northeastern Law’s Center for Public Interest Advocacy and Collaboration (CPIAC) and Immigrant Justice Clinic (IJC) partnered with Greater Boston Legal Services (GBLS) to host an immigration relief screening clinic for community members in the Greater Boston area. More than 60 volunteers came together — including GBLS advocates and Northeastern Law students, staff and faculty — to provide immigration legal advice to more than 45 clients.

Through this new partnership, students also contribute at least 30 hours of pro bono work per semester with GBLS, complementing the IJC’s work by expanding its capacity to serve a higher volume of clients.
