LULAC Immigration &
Citizenship Project
The LULAC Immigration & Citizenship Project assists individuals applying
for United States citizenship to complete their applications and to place
them in citizenship classes and other support services. The program utilizes
a toll free number for interested individuals to call for counseling, advice
and referral. The program works closely with community-based organizations
and LULAC Councils to provide outreach to the immigrant community and set
up citizenship and English classes.
The program targets immigrants throughout the United States who are eligible
for citizenship, or who have questions about their immigration status. Participants
receive counseling, advice, and referrals for immigration and naturalization
related services. The program has proven effective at increasing citizenship
attainment rate of eligible immigrants serviced. With recent changes to
national immigration laws, citizenship is now more vital than ever for immigrants
to fully participate in the American dream.
Many LULAC Councils provide assistants to immigrants at the local level
