The Organization: The Florence Project was founded in 1989 to respond to a representation crisis for indigent non-citizens detained at the rural Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Detention Center in Florence, Arizona. Through our programs today, we provide services to thousands of adults, youth, and children detained in Eloy, Florence, Phoenix, and Tucson, Arizona on any given day. In 2001, the Florence Project implemented our Integrated Social Services Program, one of the first of its kind in this field. The Florence Project provides high quality legal and social services and supports initiatives for national changes in immigration law and policy. Primary Purpose of the Job: The Florence Immigrant & Refugee Rights Project's Border Action Team Staff Attorney position intends to enhance the provision of legal services to asylum seekers encountered at the U.S. southern border. The Staff Attorney will be under the direction of the Border Action Team's Managing Attorney. This position is intended to be adaptive, based on the constantly evolving landscape of U.S. border policy - including, but not limited to, policies like metering, expulsions without due process, removal proceedings at the border, and various forms of expedited removal - as well as the impact those policies have on the use of detention. The Staff Attorney will provide legal orientation, consultation, and some direct representation to asylum seekers at the Arizona/Sonora border and/or in the credible fear process at the border or in ICE detention. The Staff Attorney will also provide Know Your Rights presentations and pro se assistance, as well as direct representation to other individuals in detention, as needed. The distribution of tasks is highly dependent upon program priorities at the time, based upon current border and immigration policies. The Staff Attorney will also collaborate on advocacy efforts to protect and improve due process. The Staff Attorney will be an employee of FIRRP but, like all members on the Border Action Team, will work closely with the Kino Border Initiative staff and other NGO community partners as well. This position is based out of FIRRP's Tucson office but requires frequent travel to Sonora, Mexico. Some travel to the detention facilities and Immigration Courts in Eloy and Florence, Arizona, may also be required. Essential Duties & Responsibilities: Legal Orientation and Education at the Arizona/Mexico border: Conduct regular “Know Your Rights” presentations, legal orientations, and/or group workshops in, but not limited to, Nogales, Sonora, Mexico or within Arizona. Communicate and interpret immigration and department policies and programs to the public, including public speaking on such matters as “Know Your Rights” and other matters as requested. Develop or update pro se materials for the populations the Border Action Team serves. Develop group workshops on targeted, specific legal issues for the populations the Border Action Team serves (e.g. for fear interview preparation; I-589 application support; evidence gathering, etc.) and with consideration of how workshops expand our clients' access to asylum or enhance their removal defense in light of current border policies. Remain current on the implications of criminal and civil law as it applies to clients' options for relief from removal. Actively stay apprised and trained in developments in both border and immigration policies, whether they are proposed policies, impending policies, active policies in effect, or past policies. Advocacy: Support the Florence Project's efforts to document cases of due process violations at the Arizona/Sonora border and collaborate in the preparation of reports and advocacy documents explaining the legal implications and human consequences of these violations. Proactively communicate with community partners and supervisors at FIRRP, including participating in joint quarterly meetings to review caseload, documentation for advocacy efforts, and other emerging considerations. Participate in local, regional, and national stakeholder meetings, as necessary, to stay abreast of border policy. Create agendas and track deliverables and requests in stakeholder meetings and relay that information to the team or external stakeholders, as appropriate. Casework at the Arizona/Mexico border: Conduct in-depth intake interviews for either pro se or direct representation of individuals at the Arizona/Mexico border. Communicate with clients to obtain initial and follow-up information. Provide either pro se support or direct representation to individuals seeking immigration relief at the Arizona/Sonora border, including evaluating for not only underlying immigration relief but also for exemptions or exceptions from any current deterrence-based border policies. Ensure the accuracy, substance, and timeliness of statistical and narrative reports, projects, schedules, and other relevant work products.

Casework for adults within Arizona immigration detention facilities: Depending on team capacity & current border realities, staff attorneys may be required to provide either pro se support or direct representation to individuals who are detained by ICE within Arizona detention facilities in a variety of matters, including but not limited to: bond; parole; requests for asylum, withholding, or CAT relief, appellate matters, etc. Track cases and outcomes accordingly. Prepare legal memorandums, motions, briefs, pre-hearing statements, and other legal documents in support of immigration benefits, as needed. Gather resources on expert witnesses and country conditions to serve as evidence. Refer clients who are released from ICE custody to appropriate pro bono resources in their destination community when such resources are available. Track and monitor caseload and relevant deadlines.
