Kids in Need of Defense
We have reported previously on the problems experienced by unaccompanied children immigrating to the United States as well as the new organization in the works to provide legal help to them. Kids in Need of Defense (KIND) seeks to address the issue by providing free legal assistance to the thousands of children who cross the United States border alone. KIND was launched in October 2008 by Microsoft and actress Angelina Jolie. Great work! For a story on KIND, click here.
