The nonprofit provides specialized legal services and advocacy programs for undocumented children, adults, and families. FIRRP’s services team provides critical support to address their clients’ needs outside their legal cases. Helping them pursue their rights to medical and mental health care, family reunification, and in transitioning out of detention.
