RELEASE DATE: MONDAY JULY 8, 2024
On July 1, 2024, IDHS released a Notice of Funding Opportunity for the Immigrant Legal Support Program. The program seeks to expand immigration legal services to meet the growing needs of the immigrant population in Illinois in a manner that responds to the existing resource constraints legal providers face. The program is designed to provide comprehensive immigration legal services. The Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights (ICIRR) plans to submit a proposal to the Illinois Department of Human Services (IDHS) as the prime grantee.
ICIRR will subcontract with eligible and qualified agencies and organizations to provide community education and direct services, such as Immigrant Application Processing, Legal Aid and Information Resources, and Information and Referrals.
