CRCKY SERVICES
CONSULTATION WITH AN IMMIGRATION ATTORNEY
​CRCKY will pay for the initial consultation with a reputable immigration lawyer, to determine if you qualify for legal assistance.
PRO SE PROGRAM
This free program pairs trained CRCKY staff and volunteers to help asylum seekers complete their own immigration forms for asylum, request for work permits, change of address and FOIA requests. CRCKY staff and volunteers are not immigration attorneys and cannot represent you in Immigration Court. However, our two DOJ Partially Accredited Representatives can give legal support to clients in affirmative proceedings. All documents will be reviewed by a licensed immigration attorney before being submitted to the government.

HOUSEHOLD GOODS
​
Imagine you just fled your home country in genuine fear of being persecuted for your life. You make it to the U.S. after a grueling journey and you have only the clothes you are wearing. You have no coat, no closed-toe shoes, and nothing to furnish your apartment with, when you are finally able to get one. That's why CRCKY keeps gently used coats, shoes, kitchen and small items of furniture in their office.
