What Immigrant Justice Corps Inc does
Mission
Ijc's mission is to recruit, train, and populate the immigration field with the highest quality legal advocates to create a new generation of leaders with a lifelong commitment to immigrant justice.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Program
Immigrant justice corps is the only organization in the nation that champions access to justice for immigrants by training and mobilizing a new generation of leaders to cultivate innovative models for representation and support a network of organizations to build a humane immigration system. The immigrant justice corps fellowship program places lawyers and college graduates in two-year assignments at over 100 partner organizations in more than 30 states, offering a blueprint for providing high-quality legal assistance to immigrants in need, while building network capacity on the ground. There are millions of immigrants facing deportation in removal proceedings and more than half cannot afford counsel. There are far too few free, skilled lawyers and paralegals, resulting in an unprecedented...(continued on schedule o)due process crisis, placing hundreds of thousands of immigrants at risk of being unfairly deported, separated from their families, and returned to life-threatening situations. Immigrant justice corps fellows have served over 100,000 immigrants and their families since 2014, obtaining positive outcomes in over 90% of closed cases.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $36M to $46M (+29%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2017 6% · 2018 2% · 2019 8% · 2020 6% · 2021 4% · 2022 4% · 2023 10% · 2024 3%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
96% of IMMIGRANT JUSTICE CORPS INC’s revenue is contributions — more donation-reliant than the typical peer (95% for the typical peer).

Left out of every figure on this page: $46k from one payer (the same organization on both sides, largest Immigrant Justice Corps Inc). These are real filings, and they are not money IMMIGRANT JUSTICE CORPS INC raised.
From the IRS filings of IMMIGRANT JUSTICE CORPS INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 78 funders by total. Association, not causation.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 5 funders to its left
45% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund IMMIGRANT JUSTICE CORPS INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 62% · 2018 25% · 2019 20% · 2020 18% · 2021 21% · 2022 34% · 2023 19% — diversifying over time.

In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $15M arriving through sponsors registered in 11 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
