Human Rights First’s Refugee Representation team promotes human rights by assisting refugees fleeing persecution. We achieve this goal by providing direct representation and partnering with pro bono lawyers to help our clients access social services and legal protections in the United States consistent with international law.  We then use that experience to advocate for laws and policies that protect refugees.
