Facilitating reading comprehension and interpreting documents and making phone calls in English.
Language barriers can be very challenging. This is why the Brazilian Worker Center offers support by assisting members of our immigrant community to read and interpret various documents and forms, which may not be available in their native language, as well as with making phone calls in English, when needed.
Public Notary Service: Notaries public hold a variety of responsibilities including witnessing signatures, issuing subpoenas, and witnessing the opening of a bank safe, vault, or box.
Family Support Service: Arriving in a new country can be very challenging especially when immigrants have school age children. The Brazilian Worker Center can contact local schools on behalf of families and students and assist with school registration. Additionally, the organization can support recently arrived families with check-in and communication via phone and emails with federal agencies, when needed; support families of detainees who need assistance with registering with commissary account on Detention Centers; provide information about how to pay fines and how to pay child support online; support with responding to Jury duty; and, give family orientation sessions about how to make bank transfers and send money to inmates; among other services.
