The forums take place once a month at various locations.  Timing varies, but usually the volunteer shift is from 8 AM (training) until 2 PM.  Breakfast and lunch are provided.

Training Needed

Training is provided for all volunteers — attorneys and non-attorneys — on the same day, starting promptly at 8 AM. Please dress comfortably and bring a light sweater as the room may get cold. Being bilingual is not required but it is helpful.

HELP WITH CITIZENSHIP & IMMIGRATION FORUMS

BakerRipley regularly holds these free forums in partnership with NALEO Educational Fund, the City of Houston, and Univision 45.

Volunteer attorneys assist qualified Lawful Permanent Residents who are applying for Naturalization (Citizenship). Other volunteers are needed to help applicants complete their application forms. Volunteers can also provide support as runners or interpreters, and at registration.
