The Political Asylum/Immigration Representation (PAIR) Project provides free legal services to indigent asylum seekers and detained immigrants, assuring fairness and access to justice. For 33 years, PAIR's Annual Gala has stood out as a gathering of community allies who are committed to supporting PAIR and immigrant rights through volunteerism, corporate sponsorship, and donations to PAIR's Fund the Mission driveThe 2022 Virtual PAIR Gala was held on Monday, June 6th at 6:30 P.M.

Testimonies

Staff

 "Asylum seekers are our family, neighbors, friends, mentors and caregivers. They have overcome unspeakable torture, persecution and violence – but they also have hope, dreams and goals – just like you and I. PAIR works to empower our clients so that they can bravely tell their stories, and take steps towards rebuilding their lives in the U.S."

Client

"If I published many of my poems in my birthplace Iran, the government would put a noose around my neck. Instead, I sit here now in LA, and speak to you without fear. It is because this place called PAIR exists. It is because PAIR does essential work. PAIR is a symbol of recouping hope and safety for an asylum seeker."
