LEARN ABOUT WHAT WE DO - Accessible. Respected. Deep Expertise. Leadership.
Immigrants’ Rights
Centro Legal’s immigration practice is focused on serving the needs of our most vulnerable community members, including families living in poverty, long residing undocumented immigrants and families, youth, victims of violent crimes, asylum seekers, and detained individuals in removal proceedings.
Tenants’ Rights
Stopping displacement, maintaining neighborhoods and stabilizing our communities are very important goals for the Tenants’ Rights Program.
Workers’ Rights
The low-wage immigrant workers served by Centro Legal’s Workers’ Rights Program are employed in industries where wage theft and other serious workplace violations are commonplace.
Litigation
Through each of our legal programs, Centro Legal represents low-income and immigrant workers, tenants, and other clients and communities in affirmative and impact lawsuits to protect their rights and improve conditions more broadly.
Youth Law Academy
The Youth Law Academy is a three-year program for Oakland high school students to help them build their confidence and understanding of the path to college.
