HIAS supports over 300 asylum seekers and forcibly displaced persons in the D.C. area with free legal representation. Whether you are an educator or attorney, speak a foreign language (our highest need is for volunteers who speak Amharic, Dari, French, Pashto, and/or Spanish), or are interested in welcoming newcomers into your community, we invite you to take the first step toward becoming a HIAS volunteer by joining a mandatory information session.

Advance registration required and you must be located in the Greater Washington, D.C. area.
