Whether you’re a U.S. citizen, a green card holder, a student on a visa, or undocumented, you have legal rights.
Below you will find resources for advocates, service providers and allies who want to help ensure that immigrants know their rights in different contexts.
MIRA provides “know your rights” trainings for groups. Right now, we are only providing virtual trainings for advocates and service providers, and limited in-person trainings for communities. You can fill out this form to request one.
