IMMIGRATION SERVICES

The Immigration and Social Services Department of Catholic Charities of Shreveport was
established in 2011 in response to the growing number of immigrants and their families in
our area. We help persons throughout North Louisiana to understand the immigration law
and to their rights under the law.

Our program in designed to advise and guide clients through the immigration process
in an efficient, effective and professionally caring manner, honoring the dignity of each
person. We consider the client’s participation critical to successful immigration processing
and we involve all our clients fully in their own individual matters.
