Mission Statement:The California Immigrant Welfare Collaborative (CIWC) is a statewide partnership of the Asian Pacific American Legal Center of Southern California, Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles, National Immigration Law Center and Services, Immigrant Rights and Education Network. CIWC was formed in 1996 in response to the passage of federal immigration and welfare laws that profoundly affected immigrants. CIWC works with community based organizations, service providers and policy makers to advocate for the rights of low-income immigrants in California and to provide an integrated response to changes in laws and policies affecting immigrants' access to public benefits.
