Meet the team behind the UCLA Miñana Family Center for Immigration Law and Policy
Founded in 2020, CILP is at the cutting edge of immigration scholarship and practice - developing bold legal, policy, and narrative change strategies that advance the way we think about immigration law and policy in the U.S. and beyond.
Founded in 2020, the UCLA Miñana Family Center for Immigration Law and Policy (CILP) expands the law school’s role as a national leader in immigration law and policy. CILP generates innovative ideas at the intersection of immigration scholarship and practice; serves as a hub for transforming those ideas into meaningful changes in immigration policy at the local, state, and national level; and empowers students with unique opportunities for experiential learning through work with academics, practitioners, policymakers, and activists. CILP pursues those goals by supporting faculty performing cutting-edge work in immigration law and policy; bolstering initiatives for student engagement including the Immigrant Family Legal Clinic, the Immigrants’ Rights Policy Clinic and service-learning trips for UCLA Law students to border regions; engaging in strategic litigation; publishing briefings and reports on immigration policy; and hosting conferences and symposia featuring top national scholars.
