Please join the Center for Gender & Refugee Studies-California (CGRS) and Inland Counties Legal Services for an in-person training in Riverside, California to discuss current considerations in case planning for asylum, withholding of removal & Convention Against Torture claims. CGRS trainers will discuss planning stages from developing the legal theory to evidence gathering in support of these claims. They will also address declaration writing with specific considerations for clients in detention as well as preparing and amending applications amid pretermission risks. Attendees are encouraged to submit questions in advance when registering.
The training will have a morning and afternoon session. Attendees are welcome to attend one or both sessions and there will be a one-hour lunch break starting at 12:00 PM. There are several lunch options within walking distance, or you are welcome to bring your own lunch.
