The Florence Project provides free legal services, social
services, and advocacy to immigrants facing detention
and potential deportation. Your tax-deductible
donation makes this work possible.
On any given day
immigrant adults and children
are detained in Arizona.
Without the right to a public defender, both adults and children in immigration detention appear in court alone without an attorney. They may be deported back to the unsafe situations they have fled. The Florence Project offers them a lifeline through free legal and social services and advocacy.
Our team of attorneys and legal assistants provide legal education and representation to adults and children in immigration detention.
Our team of social workers facilitate our trauma-informed provision of legal services and provide critical support to address our clients’ needs beyond their legal cases.
Our advocacy team advances the rights of adults and children in immigration detention and advances systemic change.
Our mission is to provide free legal and social services to detained adults and unaccompanied children facing immigration removal proceedings in Arizona.
Our vision is to ensure that all immigrants facing removal have access to counsel, understand their rights, and be treated fairly and humanely.
The Florence Project is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to addressing inequity in the immigration system both locally and nationally through direct services and strategic partnerships, advocacy, and outreach efforts.
These resources are designed to assist pro bono attorneys when representing people who are detained in immigration proceedings.
