Job Description

The Massachusetts Office for Refugees and Immigrants (ORI) is pleased to announce that it is

working to establish a new legal services program to assist immigrants and refugees. We are

seeking passionate, hard-working attorneys interested in joining the program. This

announcement is not a job posting and your response will not be considered an application

for employment. ORI will contact those who respond to this announcement when the

program begins and jobs become available—likely in November 2025.

Earlier this year, the Massachusetts Legislature appropriated funds to ORI to establish this new

immigration legal services program, which ORI has called the Massachusetts Access to Counsel

Initiative (MACI). MACI attorneys will provide direct legal representation to eligible, income-qualified

immigrants and refugees in Massachusetts through single consultations or ongoing

legal representation, consistent with the legislative mandate.

ORI is currently conducting a procurement to secure non-profit organizations to administer

MACI. The non-profit organization(s) selected through this process will be expected to hire

attorneys to staff this new program and serve its clients. ORI is collecting interest forms in

advance of this hiring process to share with the non-profits that will administer MACI. ORI

anticipates program launch in early November 2025.

If you are interested in participating in MACI, please submit a statement of interest and your

resume to ORI through the Microsoft form linked below. Please note again, this is not a job

posting and this interest form is not an application for employment.

The non-profit organization(s) which secure a contract to administer MACI will be responsible

for hiring attorneys and/or subcontracting with other non-profit organizations or private law

firms which will hire attorneys. ORI will not directly hire any attorneys. If you submit an interest

form, ORI would provide your submission to the non-profit organization(s) awarded the MACI

contract(s) for consideration in the anticipated hiring process.

MACI attorneys will be expected to:

• Hold a Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school

• Be a member in good standing of the bar of the highest court of any state in the country

or U.S. territory or has sat for the Bar exam in July of 2025 and is awaiting results

• Add new capacity to the Massachusetts immigration bar

• Be able to travel to Massachusetts Immigration Courts and detention facilities

Compensation for MACI attorneys will be set by the non-profit organization(s) selected to

administer the program and comparable to salaries for attorneys with similar experience at public

interest legal services organizations in Massachusetts.
