Your next step

Open the official website and choose the service or local office that matches your question. Confirm current requirements directly with that program.

Questions to ask

  • Does this program serve my location and situation?
  • What are the current costs, openings and application requirements?
  • Can I get an interpreter or an accessible way to use the service?

If this one cannot help

Other starting points for the same need:

  • California immigrant resources: California’s official page for immigrant families: Governor’s Office know-your-rights fact sheets in 15 languages, links to state-funded nonprofit legal providers and ImmigrationLawHelp.org, scam warnings, and guidance on school, work and public programs.
  • Informed Immigrant: Plain-language guides for immigrants on DACA, detention, health care and work, plus a ZIP code search for legal and community help. It is an information site, not a law office.
  • California Attorney General: know your immigration rights: The California Attorney General's plain-language summary of immigrants' rights under state law, including housing, emergency care, the right to an attorney and limits on local police. It links to free legal help and complaint options.

All starting points for newcomer and refugee resources
