CONNECT ·2021 Grants ChallengeLos Angeles Refugee Representation Project
Al Otro Lado’s Los Angeles Refugee Representation Project connects recently liberated asylum seekers and longer-term immigrant residents to necessary resources and support. Our holistic model blends legal and case management services with direct humanitarian support because we recognize that we cannot expect clients to engage in their legal cases, attend medical appointments, or navigate benefits unless and until their basic needs (food, clothing, shelter) are met.
