Helping Immigrants in Nebraska Achieve their Dream
What We Do
We help immigrants and refugees achieve their dream by providing high-quality and affordable legal and mental health services directly.
Our Impact
At the Center for Legal Immigration Assistance (CLIA) we’ve worked on improving the lives of over 12,000 immigrants through direct legal services.
Immigrants are integral, important, and necessary members of our society. When you invest in an immigrant’s future, the investment benefits all Americans. Our clients pay taxes to the state, obtain an education to fulfill their passions and dreams, and support their communities by giving back to society.
Advocacy
We advocate for our clients and immigrants on a state and national scale.
Education
We run small to large scale webinars and trainings on immigrant rights, immigration 101, and employer sessions.
Empathy
We deeply care for our clients and the immigrant community. We have no bottom line being a nonprofit.
Expertise
We have serving the immigrant and refugee community for over 22 years.
Our numbers speak volumes
We may be a small nonprofit organization but our numbers speak for themselves. We are happy to be able to continue to grow and help more people every day.
