About HUMAN RIGHTS INITIATIVE OF NORTH TEXAS INC
Human Rights Initiative of North Texas (HRI) is a Dallas-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit that provides free, high-quality legal representation and social services to immigrants and refugees who have suffered human rights abuses, including asylum seekers, trafficking survivors, victims of domestic violence, and vulnerable children. HRI operates a hybrid model that pairs an experienced in-house legal and social-services team with an extensive network of trained pro bono attorneys, medical professionals, interpreters, and volunteers to deliver comprehensive client-centered services across North Texas. In recent years HRI has continued to scale services and institutional capacity (including published annual reports and audited financials), completed a leadership transition to a new executive director in early 2024, and reported sustained high case outcomes and strong pro bono engagement across the region.
