Crisis Services and Resources
The Human Rights Initiative at UB is unable to respond to direct inquiries for asylum. Individuals seeking asylum who would like to utilize our services must be in the United States and have their attorney contact us through the PHR referral form. For those in imminent danger or crisis, we have provided international US Embassies as well as International Suicide Hotlines. Please be aware that we cannot guarantee that these resources are secure and/or confidential.
