This ABA Giving Day, join ProBAR as we protect legal rights and secure a brighter, safer future for immigrants and asylum-seekers.

On August 1, 2025, ProBAR formally expanded its service area to include Corpus Christi, Texas. ProBAR now provides legal orientation, representation, and connection to services for unaccompanied immigrant children in five youth shelters and long-term foster care facilities in the region.

It’s October 2024 in the United States, and tensions are flaring in anticipation of the 47th presidential eletion. Each vote casts a wish for a better future. Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, a man named Teo and his daughter Nika make the difficult decision to flee their home country in Eastern Europe, fearing for their lives in the wake of their own national elections.

Earlier this year, ProBAR attorneys learned that a number of their recent unaccompanied children clients were scheduled for asylum interviews. The two clients, a girl from Honduras and a boy from Egypt who both arrived unaccompanied to the U.S. in 2024, were not expected to have their interviews for at least a year.

With ProBAR and Texas Immigration Law Council, we are advancing justice and building legal access for non-citizens in Texas. Fellowship positions are now available!
