Overview

Mission

Immigrant Hope Wyoming/Idaho is a non-profit organization located in Jackson, Wyoming that has been approved by the U.S. Department of Justice to offer honest, low-cost legal advice and representation in U.S. immigration law.

What it reported doing in 2025

Immigrant Hope-Wyoming/Idaho provides expert legal guidance and representation for Naturalization, Green Cards, DACA, and other immigration benefits. In 2025, the organization served 134 individuals through two distinct levels of service. The first level consists of comprehensive Legal Screenings and Consultations. In 2025, 67 individuals received these screenings to determine their eligibility for immigration benefits. For these individuals, our staff provided vital information on their immigration options, offering clarity even when no immediate path to a benefit existed or the case fell outside our organizational scope. This service ensures community members receive accurate legal information and helps prevent immigration fraud. The second level of service is Direct Legal Representation for clients meeting our program criteria. Throughout 2025, the federal government issued decisions on 29 of our active cases, while 27 other cases remained pending with the government at year-end. Additionally, our team was actively preparing applications for 11 new clients for submission, ensuring a robust pipeline of support into the next year.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 77% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of available resources goes toward mission work. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
