Video: Make a Difference in a Child's Life
A valuable recruitment tool, this video describes two different cases and the impact the attorneys have had on the child they represent, and the impact the children have had on the attorneys.
Directory of Pro Bono Children's Law Programs
UPDATED 1/16/2007
The Directory contains listings of children's law projects
including information about areas of representation, availability
of manuals and literature, training sessions, and opportunities
for volunteers. The Directory is a valuable tool for networking with other
projects, and projects listed in the Directory can provide models for
groups who are creating new projects. The Directory is organized alphabetically
by state with separate sections for private organizations, law school
clinics and law firm programs.
If you are aware of any changes that should be made in the Directory (e.g. addresses or phone numbers) or if you know of a children's law program that is not listed in the Directory, please contact Catherine Krebs.
