BakerRipley has always served families who represent some of the most vulnerable members of our community. The Immigration & Citizenship program continues its efforts in supporting newly arriving families, and the immigrant community on an ongoing basis, as we support them through their immigration proceedings at no cost to families.

Many of these families find themselves in difficult situations with little to no access to basic needs as they are arriving to Houston. As an agency, we strive to ensure all families can live in a humane and dignified way. Our program''s holistic approach strives to ensure families can receive supportive services, from both our legal team and our social services team. The Immigration & Citizenship program will be having an on-going and continuous donation drive for our clients as they start to take the next steps of settling into Houston.
