SB 1194: Immigration Legal Fellowship Project.

This bill establishes the Immigration Legal Fellowship Project within the state department of social services to expand access to high-quality immigration legal services. It requires the department to award grants to support legal fellowships for qualified individuals who provide immigration legal services. The program will include recruitment, placement, coordination, and hosting of legal fellows, and the department will establish eligibility criteria, application requirements, and funding priorities. The project's implementation is contingent on an appropriation for this purpose. The bill also requires the department to include information about the use of funds in reports to the legislature regarding other immigration-related programs.
