More Info

General Info: Florida Immigrant Advocacy Center ( FIAC ) is a not-for-profit legal assistance organization dedicated to protecting and promoting the basic human rights of immigrants of all nationalities. Florida Immigrant Advocacy Center ( FIAC ) was founded in 1996 because of pending restrictions and funding cuts to Legal Services Corporation ( LSC ) funded agencies, which prevented many organizations in the state of Florida from serving the immigrant population. Sweeping changes in immigration law and welfare reform also increased the demand for services from FIAC. Since its inception, FIAC has met many challenges faced by immigrants, not only by representing individual clients with difficult cases, but also by influencing policy decisions, encouraging favorable clarifications of rulings, participating in effective and ongoing dialogue with senior immigration officials in Washington, and litigating or otherwise challenging patterns and practices of abuse. Since its founding, FIAC has closed nearly 75, 000 cases and has become a national trendsetter in the immigration field. FIAC has grown from ten employees and a $400, 000 budget to a staff of more than fifty and a budget approaching $4 million.
