Immigrants and allies are invited to learn how to protect their communities through trainings on the legal system and their civil rights

What is a Community Navigator? Community Navigators are community members who receive specialized training to provide quality immigration services for their communities in an empowering and effective way.

The Pennsylvania Immigration and Citizenship Coalition (PICC) will be hosting a series of trainings in Pittsburgh from February 6-17, 2018, to give community leaders the skills and knowledge to assist their peers in accessing resources and understanding their rights in Pittsburgh. Through the PICC Community Navigator Program, you will be trained to:

• Conduct public education information sessions
• Lead workshops on Know Your Rights and Deportation Defense Preparation
• Work with families to develop Deportation Defense Packets and gather documents
• Organize legal workshops and legal clinics to provide comprehensive legal screening and naturalization assistance through community workshops (with attorneys and/or fully accredited DOJ reps present)
