News & Updates

As 2023 concludes, ProBAR would like to share a few of our memories from a tremendous year of teamwork, transition and tremendous impact.

Spanning pages 2 -11, the spotlight introduces ProBAR’s history and services, describes our work with unaccompanied children, and provides an update on our response to changing border policies, including the new Asylum Ban. We also highlight Akin’s Senior Pro Bono Coordinator Emily Heger who has collaborated with ProBAR to provide assistance to survivors of the Ozanam tragedy.

ProBAR celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month, shares experiences with Operation Lone Star, celebrates staff and much more in the Fall 2023 bulletin.

ProBAR understands just how important it is to build connections. Whether attending a conference, organizing information sessions, or participating in career fairs, we want those interested in our work to know that there are many opportunities to get involved in support of ProBAR’s mission.

Due to ProBAR’s proximity to the U.S.-Mexico border, the ProBAR team serves tens of thousands of individuals every year. As the immigration legal landscape changes, ProBAR’s team is also positioned to share a unique perspective on the experiences of migrants as they arrive at our border and pursue their cases for immigration relief. Several of our ProBAR team members presented and shared their expertise at this year’s State Bar of Texas Poverty Law Conference.
