Immigrant Defense Project * * Fiscal Sponsor: Fund for the City of New York. 3 West 29th Street Suite 803 New York, NY 10001 http://www.immigrantdefenseproject.org
The Immigrant Defense Project defends the legal, constitutional and human rights of immigrants facing criminal or deportation charges. We are the nation's first project founded to respond to the devastating 1996 immigration laws that placed hundreds of thousands of immigrants at risk of mandatory detention and deportation for virtually any interaction with the criminal justice system.
IDP promotes a transformation of the criminal justice and immigration systems so that they do not result in the exile of immigrants from their homes and families in the United States. We also seek to minimize deportation and detention under current laws for immigrants facing criminal charges or subsequent deportation.
*All donations made to Immigrant Defense Project will be sent to their fiscal agent Fund for the City of New York.
