Academia América is a 501 (c) (3) community-based non-profit organization in San Antonio, Texas. It was founded in 2008 by community activists grounded in principles of anti-discrimination, Social Justice, and Human Rights. We provide education programs and services to immigrants who want to become U.S. citizens.
Citizenship Education:
The Nuevos Ciudadanos Citizenship Education Program is Academia América’s New Americans Project. The Program has the dual goals of integration and civic engagement. The curriculum, which includes modules in Civics, History, and English, facilitates preparation for the naturalization examination and promotes civic engagement. Financial Literacy education emphasizes social integration.
Legal Services:
Academia América partners with nonprofit legal assistance providers to facilitate access to low-cost legal services for our clients. Students enrolled in our classes receive discounted assistance with completing the naturalization application and related forms.
