Co-Directing Attorney-Esperanza Immigrants Rights Project - Los Angeles, United States - Catholic Charities of LA
Description
Job Description
Job DescriptionEsperanza Immigrant Rights Project, a program of Catholic Charities of Los Angeles, Inc., is a non-profit law firm which provides community education and legal representation to immigrant adults, families, unaccompanied minors, individuals with mental health issues, and in cases involving crimmigration. Esperanza has proudly provided legal services to immigrants and their families in Southern California for over 15 years. The immigration court system does not provide court-appointed counsel to individuals facing deportation who cannot afford an attorney, so this vulnerable population relies on our community education programs to obtain critical information about the process, understand their legal options and access assistance. Esperanza's community education programs were established to more effectively meet this need and to guide pro se immigrants through the increasingly complicated and strained immigration system. Core services of the programs include legal orientations regarding removal proceedings and legal relief; intake and follow-up services; self-help workshops; and referrals for pro bono assistance or social services. More information can be found about Esperanza at www.esperanza-
The Directing Attorney for Esperanza's Representation Program, together with the other Directing Attorney for Representation, will supervise Esperanza's entire program, including managing attorneys, staff attorneys, accredited representatives, and support staff. The Directing Attorney will supervise the representation work done within Esperanza and is in charge of maintaining and enforcing the highest quality representation possible for our clients. Additionally, the Directing Attorney will help maintain good relations with relevant stakeholders, including directly supervising the gathering and reporting of data, contract compliance, and assisting the Program Director in ensuring that all programs are being conducted within budget constraints. The Directing Attorney for the Representation Program will work with other directing attorneys and the Program Director to assist with the overall management and coordination of the different programs and personnel within Esperanza. The Directing Attorney will report directly to the Program Director. May supervise the work of employees and/or volunteers.
