Just Neighbors was founded in 1996 by several pastors and attorneys of the United Methodist Church to develop a practical response to the legal challenges that low-income immigrants face in the United States. The organization set out to provide accurate and reliable information and services to the immigrant community. The founders of Just Neighbors recognized the need to assist immigrants of all faiths and nationalities and treat immigrants with compassion and hospitality.

In 1996, Just Neighbors opened the doors of its offices in Falls Church, Virginia. Two years later, a second office in Herndon, Virginia, was established to provide immigration legal services to the growing immigrant population in western Fairfax, London and Prince William Counties. In 2000, the organization moved its main office to its present location in Arlington, Virginia. Just Neighbors provides services to clients in English and Spanish.

Since its inception, Just Neighbors has partnered with other nonprofit organizations, community volunteers, local faith-based groups and pro bono lawyers that provide services to immigrants. Through its direct and collaborative efforts, Just Neighbors has helped empower clients and educate the community about current immigration laws and policies.

The mission of Just Neighbors is to provide immigration legal and refugees of all faiths and nationalities through our offices in Northern Virginia. Our team of attorneys, staff and committed volunteers offers hope and help as immigrants seek to navigate the current immigration system and access benefits that will enable them to become more contributing members of society. Through our community outreach efforts and volunteer program, Just Neighbors fosters mutual understanding between immigrants and the larger community in which they live.
