ILAP works primarily with low-income refugees and asylees, and they provide a range of services, from self help manuals to full representation. I worked on ILAP&#8217;s forms assist program, and I helped multiple clients complete and submit green card and citizenship applications. I also created pro se guides for the work permit and change of address forms, and I updated and compiled referral lists that ILAP clients can use to learn about a variety of services in Maine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ensemblevideo contentid=FZ_XFHdgJU-vOjtKn_Sd0Q] &nbsp; Title of Abstract: Maine Community Fellowship: Immigrant Legal Advocacy Project Named of Mentors: Tom Ancona; Treva DeMaynadier Mentors&#8217; Organizations or Departments: McKeen Center, Bowdoin College; Immigrant Legal Advocacy Project, Portland, ME Research Abstract: This past summer, I received a Maine Community Fellowship through the McKeen Center to intern at the Immigrant Legal &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":644,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-525","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mckeen-center","8":"entry"},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/presidents-summer-research-symposium-2020\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/400\/2020\/10\/ILAP_logo_color.png","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/presidents-summer-research-symposium-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/525","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/presidents-summer-research-symposium-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/presidents-summer-research-symposium-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/presidents-summer-research-symposium-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/presidents-summer-research-symposium-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=525"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/presidents-summer-research-symposium-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/525\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/presidents-summer-research-symposium-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/644"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/presidents-summer-research-symposium-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=525"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/presidents-summer-research-symposium-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=525"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/courses.bowdoin.edu\/presidents-summer-research-symposium-2020\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=525"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
