Description
Central American Resource Center (Carecen) provides a wide range of free or low cost immigration services. Carecen’s capacity to provide full representation can be limited, and they typically provide more in-depth assistance on green card renewals, family petitions, DACA, consular processing, obtaining Temporary Protected Status, and relief for undocumented youth.
Ways to Contact
Drop-in legal consultations BY PHONE ONLY offered Monday – Friday (9am–11am) on a first-come, first-served basis. Call with questions at (415) 642-4400. If you get voicemail, leave a message with your full name, phone number, and a brief explanation for your call. Repeat your message twice.
