The Nebraska CASA Association is pleased to announce a free virtual training, entitled, “Undocumented Minors and Special Immigrant Juvenile Status.” This presentation will explore how to handle undocumented minors in the juvenile court and what impact your advocacy could have on their immigration journey. With a specific emphasis on Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS), it will explore relief options available to minor clients and include an overview of what immigration matters you must consider making sure the minor has the best future possible. Finally, it will consider any impact a juvenile court proceeding could have on your client’s federal immigration journey.
