About us

We are the Children’s Immigration Law Academy (CILA), an expert legal resource center created by the American Bar Association (ABA). CILA builds capacity for those working to advance the rights of children seeking protection through trainings, technical assistance, and collaboration.

CILA serves nonprofit, pro bono, and private sector legal advocates who work with children in immigration-related proceedings. CILA began operations in Houston, Texas in late 2015.
