Our digital tools are built in collaboration with, and for, a community dedicated to transforming immigrant justice through collaboration, creativity, and technology. In 1999 our founders, Pro Bono Net, realized the power that the internet would come to have and for over two decades we have steadily transformed the civil legal aid field through digital services designed to help the most vulnerable find resources, navigate the justice system, and live more secure lives. We are delighted to introduce you to Justicia Lab, But to really know us, you have to know where it all started. Scroll down to learn where we came from and where we are headed.
Founded in New York City, Pro Bono Net was created by two law firm pro bono leaders who recognized the potential of technology and collaboration as a force multipliers for good. Pro Bono Net’s platforms have been adopted by civil justice partners in more than 40 states and territories and helped millions of people across the US.
Learn more about ProbonoIn 2007, Pro Bono Net joined forces with national immigrants' rights groups to create the Immigration Advocates Network (or IAN). From its roots as a single destination for advocates supporting immigrants, IAN quickly grew to develop new digital tools and initiatives to help immigrants find low-cost legal assistance, know their eligibility for immigration relief, and apply for naturalization.
As we look ahead to the future, the Immigrant Advocates Network has broadened its scope and changed its name to Justicia Lab, Pro Bono Net’s incubator of immigrant justice tech.
Justicia Lab’s goal is to rebalance the scales and give immigrants and their advocates new tools to navigate our immigration system, find workplace justice, and more.
We’ve partnered with leading immigrant advocacy groups to help them bridge the digital divide, supercharge campaigns, and bring the tools of justice to hard to reach communities.
