Second PSJC-CALA Clinic Tuesday, March 5


Last month we successfully launched our partnership with Central American Legal Assistance (CALA), a nonprofit organization that provides free legal services to asylum seekers in New York.  On March 5th from 9-1:00 PM, we will again host CALA’s monthly pro se asylum clinic. CALA has enough volunteers to prepare applications on this date, but they could use a few more Spanish-speaking interpreters. Volunteer opportunities include: 

  1. Application preparation: If you are interested in preparing an asylum application, please register as a CALA volunteer here. You will be added to CALA’s list of volunteers and notified of CALA’s upcoming clinics. You can specify that you are a PSJC community member and would like to participate in the PSJC-CALA clinics. For the March 5 clinic, please fill out the Google form no later than 02/16 if you'd like to be considered to participate. CALA will prioritize PSJC members for PSJC dates but also needs to balance first-time application assistants with more experienced ones and with the need for interpreters. No legal training is necessary and CALA provides a required online training for all new volunteers. You do not need to speak Spanish (interpreters will be available) but it is very welcome if you do. For questions, contact Laura Wolff (laurarscf@aol.com)

  2. Food/snacks: To donate snacks or help coordinate this effort, please contact Rachel Danzing at rachdanzing@yahoo.com

  3. Childcare: If you can help watch children while their parents work on their asylum applications, please contact Rachel at rachdanzing@yahoo.com

I really appreciated reading about the Rodfei Tzedek Action Projects it’s inspiring to see how committed this community is to justice, legal aid, and support for asylum seekers.

While preparing for an online exam on issues of social justice, I reflected on how helpful university personal statement editing UK could be to sharpen my application under pressure. It reminds me that having capable support through writing or advocacy can make all the difference in capturing one’s voice and purpose.

Writing a dissertation is probably the toughest thing I’ve had to deal with, so I tried https://royalwriter.co.uk/buy-dissertation. What I liked is that they connected me with someone who clearly knew my subject area, not just a random writer. The draft they provided helped me shape my final version, and it saved me weeks of stress. If you’re stuck at any stage—research, writing, or editing—it’s worth checking out.
