Excited to be launching this project to help move DACA recipients to longer-term status while involving students through #cornelllawclinics!
Professors @jkelleywidmer and @syaleloehr have secured a $1.5 million grant for their groundbreaking initiative, the Path2Papers project. Housed at @CornellLaw, this new nonprofit venture helps DACA recipients pursue pathways to legal permanent residency.

I have been teaching a clinic for first-year law students for the past five years (a rarity in legal education!). Thanks to the @ClinicalLawRev for publishing my thoughts and analysis of this pedagogical experience!

So proud of these students for their work, and so glad to have increased our client's access to justice. Asylum seekers who fight their case from outside detention + have representation are 5x more likely to win. Thanks @CornellMig for supporting this work.
After several weeks of advocacy, a client of the Immigration Law & Advocacy Clinic has been released from the Winn Correctional Center. He will now be able to pursue his asylum case from outside detention walls! Read the full story: #CornellLawClinics

Last week, our clinic team spent the week in Louisiana immigration detention centers conducting intakes and legal orientation with amazing @splcenter collaborators. Inspiring, challenging, world-shaking. More to come! #cornelllawclinics @alisarwhitfield

I'm having so much fun teaching the fantastic students in this year's clinic with @alisarwhitfield! #CornellLawClinics
Students in the 1L Immigration Law & Advocacy Clinic spent class time discussing strategy for their clients, a group of siblings seeking asylum. Students draw on the classic rhetorical techniques of ethos, logos, and pathos to develop persuasive case theories. #CornellLawClinics
