Services
IWJC takes a holistic approach to serving immigrant women and their families. Legal challenges are intertwined with language barriers, safety concerns, and economic hardship — so our services address the whole person: legal support, advocacy, education, crisis intervention, and essential resource connections. All services are free, confidential, and available regardless of immigration status.
IWJC provides immigration legal consultations, form assistance, referrals to qualified attorneys, court accompaniment, and Know Your Rights workshops to help women navigate the U.S. immigration system.
IWJC conducts community education sessions and Know Your Rights workshops to help immigrant women understand their legal protections and participate in civic life. We also engage in local and state policy advocacy.
IWJC provides crisis support, safety planning, and shelter referrals for survivors of domestic violence, trafficking, and gender-based violence. We also assist eligible survivors with U-visa, T-visa, and VAWA petitions to secure immigration relief.
Language should never be a barrier to justice. IWJC provides multilingual support, interpretation for appointments and legal proceedings, document translation, and language-accessible resources.
Building a new life takes more than legal help. IWJC offers employment readiness workshops, digital literacy training, mentorship, community events, and leadership development to help immigrant women thrive.
IWJC connects you with trusted community resources for housing, healthcare, food assistance, childcare, mental health, and more — helping you access the full network of support available in Connecticut.
