Legal Help for Afghan Families

Since August 2021, SHC has received urgent requests for help from our local Afghan families with familiy members in perilous situations in Afghanistan.  When possible, SHC refers local families to legal clinics or pro bono attorneys to assist with complex reunification cases or evacuation from Afghanistan. SHC can also help families contact their local Senator or US Representative for an update on their pending case.  

Afghan evacuees will continue to need legal assistance in the years to come, if you would like to be added to our referral network, please contact SHC.  

Since August 2021, SHC has assisted more than 100 individuals in Afghanistan in some way on behalf of relatives who are a part of the SHC Family here in Maryland.  

Families seeking assistance for relatives abroad, please visit here for information on resources.  
​
Recently arrived families from Afghanistan seeking more information on immigration can visit the USCIS "Information for Afghans" page

Our referral partners include:
