About Safe Passage Project
Safe Passage Project, also registered as Safe Passage Project Corporation, is a New York nonprofit that provides immigration legal services. It began in 2006 as a clinic at New York Law School and was incorporated in New York State as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization in 2013. It provides cost-free lawyers to immigrant and refugee children under 21 who face deportation, with its work centered on New York City and Long Island.
The organization screens child respondents at New York City immigration court and matches them with volunteer pro bono attorneys or in-house staff attorneys. It also mentors volunteer attorneys on Special Immigrant Juvenile status and other forms of relief for children. A social work team arranges health care, mental health, and school referrals to support clients. Its public materials state that most of its clients are unaccompanied children living with adult sponsors, and its contact address is 185 West Broadway in New York, NY.
