Careers With an Impact

CHRCL is a small team making a big impact. The Center's legacy includes landmark immigrant rights cases, including many Supreme Court cases, that have impacted millions of people. We engage in advocacy campaigns and provide training, resources, and support to legal service providers across the state. The work we do is dynamic, strategic, and community led, with a focus on serving needs in the community identified by direct legal service providers.

Our team believes that organizations that support their staff do the best work. We are committed to the organizations and communities we serve and we honor our commitment to provide the best quality services, advocacy, and litigation. We also value our team and provide generous paid time off, sick time, mental health days, and compensation. Our goal is to be a happy, collaborative team doing great work.

Based in Santa Ana, California, CHRCL is a hybrid and remote workplace with flexible hours across time zones.
