CLINIC, founded in 1988, coordinates a nationwide network within the legal services space that focuses on immigrant support. It trains nonprofit immigration service providers to deliver affordable, quality representation to low-income immigrants, supported by staff including thousands of accredited representatives and attorneys. The network comprises more than 450 organizations across 49 states, spanning faith-based groups, farmworker programs, domestic violence shelters, ethnic community organizations, libraries, and other immigrant-serving entities. Headquartered in Silver Spring, Maryland, CLINIC operates multiple field offices nationwide and its work centers on advocacy, capacity building, national partnerships, religious immigration services, and training and legal support.

It serves low-income immigrants without regard to race, religion, gender, ethnicity, or other characteristics, and seeks to adapt to shifts in immigration law and policy to meet growing needs for legal screening, protection from deportation, status adjustments, and naturalization. A recent development is the September 2023 launch of an online form to request in-person USCIS appointments, reflecting efforts to improve access to legal services.
