Membership

The National Immigration Project is proud to have members in all 50 states, reflecting a truly national network.

Please note: National organizations are counted based on the location of their primary office or the state they have listed. Data last updated May 2026.

The National Immigration Project has been crucial in the struggle to protect immigrant communities in this moment. Its combination of litigation expertise, broader political engagement, and social consciousness is more essential now than ever. I will be renewing my membership and doing everything I can to support the organization.

We strongly encourage affiliated individuals to consider joining/renewing as an organization, law firm, or law school clinic. There are unique benefits to joining as a group. Groups can extend their benefits more broadly to members of their team and will receive special tailored benefits and invitations. Nonprofit organizations, law firm member champions, and clinic member champions can extend benefits to all staff. Law firm and clinic sustainers and supporters can extend benefits to some additional staff (see benefit details by membership category below). This includes listserv access and discounted trainings for all interested staff, tailored resources, technical assistance for any member of staff, inclusion in our updated Private Attorney Directory, and special invitations to members-only events.
