Congratulations to the University of LaVerne’s Justice & Immigration Clinic for securing asylum for a transgender, HIV-positive woman from Guatemala, who fled from severe abuse. Krystal Rodriguez-Campos directs the Clinic.
According to the LaVerne Press release, “[d]espite facing numerous challenges, including a late asylum filing, a complex criminal history, and two interviews with the Los Angeles Asylum Office, [the applicant’s] case was finally approved, granting her lawful status and offering a path to a new life in the U.S.”
