Northwest Immigrant Rights Project (NWIRP) seeks a full time bilingual legal advocate to work in our Wenatchee office. The applicants must be fluent in English and Spanish, and must be able to start the position as soon as possible.
Under the supervision of an attorney, the legal advocate will provide community outreach and education, and assist in direct representation to immigrant community members in Washington State. The legal advocate will primarily work on cases involving immigration protections for immigrant survivors of crimes, including domestic violence, and may also be assigned work relating to other immigration matters as needed.
The anticipated hours of work are Monday – Friday, 9 am – 5 pm, with a 30 – 60 minute unpaid lunch break. Under NWIRP’s current COVID policies, new staff members must provide proof of COVID-19 vaccination (unless eligible for an exemption) and must wear a face mask while in all common areas at the job location. At the time of this posting, NWIRP staff is operating mostly remotely but some in-office work will be expected of this position. Once current pandemic restrictions are lifted, the position is anticipated to be eligible for a choice of hybrid or in-person work models.

NWIRP has a staff of over 120 and an annual budget of over $15 million. NWIRP serves the community through four offices in Washington State (Granger, Seattle, Tacoma and Wenatchee), but the impact of our work is felt nationwide.
