Campbell Law School students involved in the Immigrant and Refugee Rights Project (IRRP) partnered with Catholic Charities of Raleigh to host a free community naturalization clinic on Monday, Jan. 19.
Around 20 clients as well as nine law students participated in the event.
“We had a successful naturalization workshop,” said Project Manager Emma Jones ‘26. “We had many law students and clients attend, who were able to learn more about the naturalization process, including all of the recent updates.”
The event was held on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, which is the only federal holiday recognized as a National Day of Service. The day encourages Americans to participate in volunteer activities meant to improve their communities.
The students were supervised by attorneys from Catholic Charities, which has been a long-term partner of Campbell Law School. Students were guided through the process of completing the naturalization applications, which were then reviewed by licensed attorneys.
The IRRP allows law students to work with local immigrant and refugee assistance programs. The project gives students deeper insight into the laws and regulations that impact immigrants and refugees.
