Our Mission

Unaccompanied Latin American Minor Project (U-LAMP) is a program that focuses on providing academic, social and legal support to recently arrived immigrant minors, or newcomers, who are presently in deportation proceedings.

Since 2014, over 100 U-LAMP interns have assisted youth, families, attorneys, and social workers with the preparation of status adjustment, placement in proper educational programs and overall social support and integration. Working with Safe Passage Project and Catholic Charities, these students receive professional development via New York Law School Immigration Law courses and numerous workshops.

​This program is currently funded by Northeastern University and CUNY Service Corps.
