I would like to thank you for the Legal Services Fellowship grant that Equal Justice America (EJA) generously awarded me for my summer work at the Central American Resource Center in Los Angeles. The grant helped significantly in offsetting my expenses in order to provide legal services for indigent refugee children, and alleviate the overwhelming need for counsel for this particular demographic in Los Angeles. Had it not been for EJA’s assistance, engaging in the critical and meaningful work I did this summer with the same level of dedication would not have been possible.
