Immigration Services Featured in Recent Edition of The Monitor
A client and his family who received services through Catholic Charities Immigration Services in Ocean County were recently featured in an article in The Monitor.
José Aguilar, who was brought to the United States without documentation as a child, came to Catholic Charities to attain legal status through the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
