Lawrence-Funded Internship Highlight: Safe Passage Project

From now until the end of March, we will be highlighting various funds and summer internships available to students! Through the generous support of alumni and friends, Lawrence students are eligible to apply for funding to support summer internships or projects.

Safe Passage Project

Safe Passage Project provides free legal services to over 1,000 immigrant youth in New York City and on Long Island. Free legal services are critical because there is no right to free representation in immigration courts. Having a lawyer can increase the odds of success from approximately 15% to over 80%.

Our staff attorneys both directly represent clients as well as mentor pro bono volunteer attorneys who take on cases with Safe Passage Project. The most common forms of relief we seek for our clients are Special Immigrant Juvenile Status and asylum. We regularly practice before the NYC Immigration Courts, NY Family Courts, NY and NJ Asylum Offices, USCIS, and the Administrative Appeals Office.

College interns are an important and exciting addition to our diverse team of lawyers, paralegals, and social workers. Interns will be assigned to work with either one or two supervisors. Interns will have regular check-in meetings and will have two designated feedback sessions with their supervisors. While our internship will be virtual this summer, there will be opportunities for some in person work, if desired.  We will offer a comprehensive virtual orientation at the beginning of the summer and weekly virtual brown bag lunches with staff.   Interns will work with clients seeking immigration benefits, such as including Special Immigrant Juvenile Status, asylum, U nonimmigrant status, adjustment of status, naturalization, and DACA.

Deadline for submission: March 28, 2025

Before applying, you must meet with a Career Center staff member for a resume review. Once your resume is approved, apply directly on Handshake.
