| Free Legal Clinic Highlighted in Video 11/14/2011 4:21 PM Walk-in Legal Clinic from Peace and Hope International on Vimeo. The legal clinic helps trafficking victims like Ruth* (not her real name). She was lured into the United States by a man claiming to be her boyfriend, only to be raped repeatedly and forced work for nothing. Ruth escaped, but her aggressor retaliated by killing her father and threatening her family at home in Mexico. Thankfully, Ruth's family was able to join her and find safety in the United States. With help from PHI's free legal services, Ruth and her family have applied for their green cards and are on a path towards citizenship. Annually, PHI serves over 700 low-income clients through our Access to Justice Project. | |
