Mission

The Catholic Legal Immigration Network (CLINIC) was established in 1988 by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops to support a rapidly growing network of community-based immigration programs. CLINIC's mission is to enhance and expand delivery of legal services to indigent and low income immigrants principally through diocesan immigration programs and to meet the immigration needs identified by the Catholic Church in the United States. CLINIC's network originally comprised 17 programs. It has since increased to 156 diocesan and other affiliated immigration programs with 255 field offices in 48 states. The network employs roughly 1,200 attorneys and accredited paralegals who, in turn, serve 400,000 low-income immigrants each year.
