| Desc | CCLC provides free legal services to San Diego's most vulnerable residents, indigent immigrants with legitimate claims to immigration relief. We focused on 4 main areas in 2017 - (1) Unaccompanied children (those detained by immigration authorities as well as non-detained children identified in the community), (2) Victims of domestic violence, Human trafficking, & other serious crimes, (3) Asylum seekers who have fled to US due to persecution or torture, (4) Young Adults assisted through DACA- Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. In 2017 CCLC again met with a record number of clients, largely as a result of the growing number of unaccompanied children entering the United States fleeing extreme violence and abuse in their home countries. In 2017, CCLC served 2,441 individuals. See Schedule O. | Desc |

| Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 1 | Casa Cornelia Law Center (CCLC) provides a bridge to justice for people who come to the US from around the world seeking safe refuge. As a 501(c)(3) public interest law firm, the mission of CCLC is to provide quality pro bono legal services to victims of human & civil rights violations, and to educate others regarding the impact of immigration law and policy on the community and the public good. CCLC has a primary commitment to the indigent within the immigrant community in Southern California. |
| Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 4a | To address the needs of the most vulnerable residents of San Diego County, CCLC provided free legal services to indigent immigrants with legitimate claims to immigration relief. There were four main areas on which CCLC focused in 2017 - (1) Unaccompanied children (all those detained by immigration authorities as well as non-detained children identified in the community), (2) Victims of domestic violence, Human trafficking, and other serious crimes, (3) Asylum seekers who have fled their homeland due to persecution or torture, and (4) DACA - Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. CCLC continues to increase its services and in 2017, Casa Cornelia again met with a record number of clients, largely as a result of the growing number of unaccompanied children entering the United States fleeing extreme violence and abuse in their home countries. In 2017, CCLC served 2,441 individuals - 954 children, 616 victims of domestic violence, human trafficking, and other serious crimes, 760 asylum seekers, and 111 individuals seeking other forms of humanitarian protection and relief primarily for DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals). A total of 447 volunteers provided legal, translation, interpretation services totaling 19,377 hours. The value of these services, not included in the 990 totaled $522,469. |
