      Education  


               LALDEF organizes community events and educational programs and it develops materials to educate the public at
               large to recognize the barriers and difficulties faced by newcomers as they struggle to integrate into, contribute to and
               be accepted into our society.

               These programs rely primarily on the services of community volunteers, and recognized experts. Through these 
               programs we expect that the community at large will become more appreciative of the cultural diversity and economic
               contributions that are brought by immigrants and embrace their presence.
               In addition, LALDEF distributes the "Folleto de Informacion ", a Spanish-language community resource handbook, edited
               by the Latin American Task Force of Princeton. Thousands of copies of the Folleto have been distributed since 1989 to new 
               Spanish-speaking residents of Hightstown, Trenton, Lawrenceville and the Princeton to educate Hispanic newcomers about
               their rights and responsibilities as neighbors, and to help ease the process of integrating these immigrants into our
               communities.Newcomers will learn how our society works by reading pertinent sections when they apply for an apartment
               lease, look for day care or medical services, or go about learning English.

    
             
               BILINGUAL TAX RETURN CLINIC

               The TAXAIDE bilingual tax return preparation assistance program is a project of the AARP, the Princeton Latin American
               Task Force, The Princeton Housing Authority, and the Latin American Legal Defense and Education Fund., which provides
               free tax return preparation help for low and moderate income families. Hours are Saturdays 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. from
               February 3 through April 14, 2007 at the Hank Pannell Learning Center, 3 Clay Street (corner of Clay and Witherspoon
               Streets) in Princeton.

               LALDEF recruits and trains bilingual volunteers from the community with the technical assistance and under the
               supervision of AARP counselors. Now in its fifth year, the program provides assistance to over 100 low and moderate
               income, mostly minority households, from Princeton and surrounding communities, to file tax returns and obtain over
               $75,000, annually, in tax credits and tax refunds. LALDEF is considering extending this service to operate on a
               year-round basis in 2007.
