Esperanza Immigration Legal Services

Esperanza Immigration Legal Services was established by Esperanza as part of its mission to strengthen Hispanic communities. It is a key facet of Esperanza’s commitment to forging an “opportunity community” in North Philadelphia – a place where all aspire to live. While Esperanza has historically worked to support the passage of comprehensive immigration reform nationally, EILS directly addresses the need for direct legal assistance on the ground.

Historias de Esperanza is a series sharing the success stories of Esperanza Immigration Legal Services clients. These stories remind us why we offer convenient, affordable, and bilingual services to primarily low-income immigrants! Meet Muhammad! "I am from Jordan. My country is a beautiful country with many historical sites that people all over the world come to visit. I came to the United States when I was about 24 years old. When I came to the United States, the transition was not easy. Here there is a different culture, language, way of doing things. When I was first eligible to naturalize back in 1996 or so, I attempted to do it on my own. At the time we moved, and our mail didn’t get forwarded to me... I was visiting with my doctor and he mentioned Esperanza and the services that they provide. So I decided to try again. When I got to Esperanza, the process was so seamless. Everything went smoothly and I got more help that I could have imagined. I hope that my wife and son can come visit Jordan this year. My two sisters are still in Jordan, and they are my life." . . . #historiasdeesperanza #esperanzaimmigrationlegalservices #EILS #legalservices #immigration #huntingpark #philadelphia

This has already been an eventful month as we wind down our citizenship class and complete our October citizenship clinic!
