At Pilsen Neighbors Community Council, we are deeply committed to the belief that every individual deserves to live a life free from discrimination, regardless of their class, race, religion, or immigration status. It is with this unwavering commitment in mind that we are excited to introduce the Latino Legal Institute (LLI), and we invite you to join us in making a positive impact on our community. 

The Latino Legal Institute is a pivotal initiative that seeks to promote fairness, humanity, and equity within our transformational justice system, with a primary focus on individuals who have been adversely affected by the system. Our goal is to create a safe and supportive space that offers Pro-Bono legal services on a range of critical issues that our community members may face. Below are some of the actions that our leaders have tirelessly undertaken: 

Immigration Assistance: Providing vital legal guidance and support to immigrants navigating the complexities of immigration laws and regulations. 

Driver’s License Reinstatement: Assisting individuals in reclaiming their driving privileges, which is often a crucial step toward rebuilding their lives. 

Criminal Records Expungement: Empowering individuals to remove barriers associated with past criminal records, helping them to secure better opportunities and a fresh start.
