Description
Join ASISTA for a review of recent developments in federal court litigation affecting immigrant survivors of domestic and sexual violence, human trafficking, and other crimes, including the newly filed ICWC v. Noem. With the rescission of the victim-centered approach and rise of enforcement actions against immigrant survivors with U, T, and VAWA petitions pending, 2025 has been a year in which practitioners have needed to skill up and include federal litigation as an integral part of representing immigrant survivors. In this webinar, we will review recent federal court decisions and arguments made on behalf of survivors who are in immigration enforcement proceedings, and discuss the remaining protections for immigrant survivors facing detention and removal.
Speakers:
- Erika Cervantes, Staff Attorney, Center for Human Rights and Constitutional Law (CHRCL)
- Sarah Kahn, Senior Staff Attorney, Center for Human Rights and Constitutional Law (CHRCL)
- Cristina Velez, Legal & Policy Director, ASISTA
- Kelly Byrne, Staff Attorney, ASISTA
