Be trained as an Immigration Liaison:
Liaisons are often already trusted advocates, educators, and mentors who wish to help immigrants succeed in integrating into life in America. Become aware of the additional needs immigrants may have in establishing legal status and build a wider network for referrals to trusted legal, social service, or government agencies.

Be trained as an Immigration Navigator:
Navigators are Liaisons who receive a 2nd day of training in order to better help immigrants obtain, identify and organize documentation required for most immigration forms. They also naturally network in their communities, educating the public about the existence of current immigration programs.
