For more than 35 years Immigration Counseling Service (ICS) has been dedicated to improving the lives of Oregon’s immigrant communities through access to affordable legal services. One of our programs assists unaccompanied children who are undocumented and detained in staff/secure detention facilities, shelters, transitional and long term foster care programs. ICS has an immediate opening for a Staff Attorney to represent these juveniles. The ideal candidate will have experience working with children, particularly those from other cultures, and considerable experience with asylum applications. We are looking for an individual who is committed to immigration and human rights issues and who works best in a collaborative work environment.
