The International Rescue Committee (IRC) is recognized by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to provide high-quality legal assistance at a low cost to all immigrants. In Salt Lake City, multiple DOJ-accredited immigration specialists work tirelessly with a team of volunteers to provide a variety of services for former refugees, asylees, SIV-recipients, and other immigrants in the community.

The services offered at the IRC in Salt Lake City include:
