Register for ELIM Institute 2024

A 40-hour basic immigration law seminar with training sessions taught by a staff of experienced immigration attorneys and fully accredited representatives. Provides a comprehensive survey of immigration law and procedure, with special emphasis on family-based immigration law from a faith-based perspective. 

This intensive training event is designed for individuals who wish to apply for Department of Justice (DOJ) accreditation, or who need continuing education hours on family-based immigration law. The DOJ allows non-attorney staff of non-profit and religious organizations to practice immigration law. ELIM’s Summer Institute is a valuable tool for those who seek to serve their immigrant community.

We have a new recognized site!

On June 6, 2023 we received the approval of an extension office at Woodland Baptist Church in San Antonio, Texas. We are delighted to serve even more people in our immigrant community at Woodland. They are one of our most cherished ministry partners, and we are honored by their willingness to open an ELIM office on their campus.
