Los Angeles Center for Law and Justice

LACLJ helps immigrant survivors of domestic violence and human trafficking access legal protections, including securing legal residency status and work authorization, and obtain benefits and social services that support self-sufficiency and economic agency as they free themselves from abuse. Our unique service model combines legal and social services to ensure that immigrant survivors can overcome challenges to navigating the justice system and accessing critical non-legal needs such as housing, food, childcare, employment, and transportation.

We seek to address the continuing lack of safety and accessibility to justice for immigrants who are survivors of domestic violence, sexual abuse, and human trafficking and the problem of some government and law enforcement agencies that become barriers to their seeking justice and safety rather than being part of the solutions. When an immigrant survivor receives justice and feels safe, they have the ability to become more integrated into our communities. Our wrap around services also address barriers with mental health and homelessness.
