CITIZENSHIP & IMMIGRATION EXPO ACTIVATION

The Citizenship and Immigration Expo will educate and organize leaders on immigration policies and priorities, while working along with the community to develop leadership and advocacy for immigrant access and inclusion. This effort will be led by community leaders, volunteer immigration attorneys, community based organizations, and local governmental entities. Along with this, the Citizenship and Immigration Expo brings together diverse community organizations across Chicago to provide immigration services and counseling.

For this year’s expo we will be hosting two events open to the public: the “Citizenship & Immigration Expo Roundtable Discussion” on July 30th, where a group of immigration experts will come together and discuss all immigration related issues, and then on July 31st, we will be hosting the free “Virtual Multilingual Immigration Counseling Services”, where all participants will get a free personalized consultation with immigration attorneys in your own language, to talk about any issues or questions that you may have about immigration and citizenship.

To be part of the audience at the Roundtable discussion on July 30th, please register HERE
