Our Crowdfunding Groups
Winter Storm Harper proved to be no match for our hearty, committed students!! After 4 flight cancellations and re-bookings they will be in the air soon on their way to Texas. Our team of #UBLawResponds US Mexico Border Clinic students are at the airport and ready to start their journey to Dilley, Texas where they will provide pro bono legal services to the women and children seeking asylum at the South Texas Family Detention Center.
