The Pennsylvania Know Your Rights resources were developed through a collaborative effort among leading immigrant advocacy organizations, including Community Justice Project, Church World Service Lancaster, Justice at Work, Esperanza Immigration Legal Services, Nationalities Service Center, and HIAS Pennsylvania. This partnership reflects a shared commitment to empowering immigrant communities with the knowledge and tools they need to navigate their rights with confidence and dignity.
