Chinatown Immigration Law Project

In September NSC began its Chinatown Immigration Law Project. Two of the people that have been helped are “Mrs. Chang” and “Lee.” (Note: all clients names have been changed to protect their confidentiality.) “Mrs. Chang” is 90 years old. She was born and raised in Shanghai, and she has had her green card for over 20 years. She is active in the senior housing development where she lives with her husband. Several years ago, she was riding a bus when a robber grabbed her purse and ran off the bus at a stop. She usually carried her green card with her everywhere, and that day was no exception.
