IMPACT REPORT
Since its founding, EILS has serviced over 1,500 immigrants through educational workshops, direct legal services, consultations and referrals. Immigrants served by EILS are well-supported to overcome critical barriers to becoming U.S. Citizens and seeking other relief – such as language barriers, economic barriers, personalized support with medical waivers and more.
The trust that we have established at the local level has been a key driver of EILS’ impact and success. The majority of EILS’ approximately 150 clients per year reach us as a result of word of mouth recommendations or direct referrals.
