It is important that this individual have ready access to transportation to downtown Baltimore as the primary focus of the position will be to help field requests for services from individuals who are held at the Baltimore Hold Room and potentially help support the drafting of habeas requests that can be filed before the individual is transferred out of Maryland. Depending upon policy changes, the individual selected may also need to travel to other areas within Maryland where individuals are detained by ICE. The selected individual will also have regular in-person clinic days during which they will support the provision of detention prevention services to those who are checking-in with ICE up to 2 days per week, depending upon the volume of requests received by those who are detained.

Increase community awareness about relevant resources, including brief legal advice clinics, case placement services and relevant city and state programs and social service resources.
Work with MILAP Team to maintain and develop a network of community partners.
Conduct client follow up and compile data regarding the impact of the MILAP.
Coordinate and execute interpreter volunteer sign-ups and assess fluency of volunteer interpreters.
Provide support to Project Director for grant reporting duties as needed.

Qualifications:

Fluency in the Spanish language is required.
Bachelor’s Degree (paralegal or law-related experience preferred).
Experience in community organizing/activism and/or public outreach.
Must be available some evenings and weekends when community legal clinics occur (with advanced notice).
Access to reliable transportation for frequent travel to PBRC’s office, Baltimore Hold Room, and travel to other locations in Maryland.
Strong attention to detail and excellent organizational and record-keeping skills.
Excellent interpersonal, written, and verbal communication skills.
Proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook, SharePoint)
Proficiency in data collection and tracking preferred (prior Salesforce experience preferred)
Ability to work well with people, including other staff, volunteers, clients, public interest organizations, governmental entities, Board members, and donors.
Experience working with children and/or the immigrant community is preferred.

Amenities:

Competitive salary ranging from $53,000 - $58,000 depending on experience.
