Las Americas Immigrant Advocacy Center is a non-profit, home grown, 23 year-old organization that is made to help serve the legal needs of vulnerabilities of immigrants like asylum seekers, woman seeking help and abandoned children. Las America’s has staff and lawyers are committed   to providing high quality help to immigrants who are not in the financial situations to help themselves. Las Americas was and is still located in El Paso, Texas the border city in the United State by Juarez, Mexico.

Las Americas is mainly involved in helping the border country of Juarez but does not limit itself to just that. The organization helps whoever seeks it and for those who wish to come to this country and better their lives. Whether it’s whole families, endangered lives, but really anyone who seeks it.

Las Americas has had much success, which is why it has lasted 23 years and counting and does a wonderful job at what the organization says it does. On their website they take donations or you can go to their offices (where located) and help in whatever way you can and be a part of their team!
