Since April of 2000, the Legal Orientation
and Pro Bono Program has worked to improve access to legal information and counseling
and increase rates of representation for immigrants appearing before the Immigration
Courts and Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA). This has been carried out primarily
through initiatives which facilitate access to information and create new incentives
for attorneys and law students to accept pro bono cases.
The Legal Orientation and Pro Bono Program focuses on four main initiatives - the
Legal Orientation Program (LOP), the BIA Pro Bono Project, the Unaccompanied Alien Children Initiative, and the Model Hearing Program.
