Justice For Our Neighbors North Central Texas (NCTx) offers free and affordable, high-quality immigration legal services provides education to the public and engages in advocacy with and for our immigrant neighbors. JFON NCTx services a region that is centered around Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. The Legal services are provided by a licensed immigration attorney who remains with their case until relief is granted or all avenues are exhausted. Intake Clinics are held once each month at First United Methodist Church in Grapevine FUMC, Arapaho United Methodist Church in Richardson, and Genesis United Methodist Church in Fort Worth. At these clinics, immigrant neighbors are welcomed and meet with the JFON NCTx attorney to learn if they have a claim to the legal status they seek. Volunteers and staff are privileged to hear the real stories of real people and see the issue of immigration in a much clearer light. The Unaccompanied No More programs provide free legal representation to unaccompanied minor children in the north and central Texas areas. By legally representing these children and helping to reunite them with parents and legal guardians, we are helping them navigate the complex legal system and decreasing the likelihood they will be deported back to countries where many were subjected to abuse, violence, and unimaginable living conditions. The program started in 2022 with grant money from Permanent Endowment Fund of Moody Methodist Church in Galveston, Texas, and it has been further supported by the Texas Bar Foundation, National Immigration Law and Justice Network and money raised by our organization. We are so thankful to the organizations that have provided us with funding and the individuals that have contributed to this program.

I have personally met the good people at Grapevine office and understand the enormous need for their services. And like most immigrant service organizations they have lost their government funding which has created a real strain on the ability to provide services. That is why I am personally reaching out to the good people of North Texas to help in any way their budget allows. Below is a breakdown in service fees that for some they must provide for free or on a sliding scale. You may visit them at
