In a ceremony on the USS Massachusetts in Battleship Cove, Fall River, MA on Friday, August 23, 2013, 30 people took the oath of citizenship and became US Citizens. Eight among the group were clients of our program, meaning that they attended our Citizenship Preparation Classes and//or received our legal support throughout the application process.
We are proud of all the new citizens, and are particularly proud to have helped our 8 clients on their journey to citizenship.

Note: the number to be sworn in was originally 33, then reduced to 31 on the day of the event, and 30 actually took the oath--so there is a discrepancy in the accounts.
