The Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition (CIRC) is offering free legal workshops to help people navigate the often complicated immigration system.
The workshops offer support with DACA renewal, citizenship applications, and consultations with immigration lawyers.
"If there is an attorney in the area, they're not going to help you for free," said Garza."They're gonna charge you like a pretty penny." "People who are able to apply for citizenship do gain a lot of benefits, like being able to vote," said Garza."You don't have to worry about deportation. You can travel with way less restrictions."They are recipients of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. DACA recipients are allowed to defer deportation and receive work permits if they reapply for the DACA program every two years.
Garza said that the workshops will travel to different locations throughout Colorado. For those who can't physically attend a workshop, CIRC can help through Zoom.
