The Young Center for Immigrant Children's Rights is a non-profit organization dedicated to advocating for the rights of unaccompanied immigrant children. The Young Center provides Volunteer Child Advocates (guardians ad litem) for trafficking victims and unaccompanied immigrant children. These advocates are adults who volunteer to spend time with and advocate for an individual unaccompanied immigrant child while they are in federal custody and undergoing immigration proceedings.
Once assigned to a child, each Advocate receives ongoing training, support, and supervision from the Young Center. Currently, our New York office is seeking bilingual volunteers who can conduct weekly one-hour visits with a child in need of accompaniment. We welcome volunteers from all cultures, professions, races, ethnicities, and social backgrounds to join us!
