CHARLOTTE — Catholic Charities Diocese of Charlotte has been approved to continue to provide immigration legal services for another six years by the U.S. Department of Justice.
The “renewal of recognition” was approved by the department’s Executive Office for Immigration Review Recognition and Accreditation Program Jan. 20 and covers the agency and its authorized representatives.
“This renewal allows our Immigration Program to continue to represent clients in immigration proceedings, file forms and appear before the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services,” explained Gerard Carter, executive director and CEO of Catholic Charities Diocese of Charlotte. “It allows us to advocate for clients who otherwise may lack access to legal services that they can afford.”
