Discussing standards for legal aid practice
The American Bar Association will present “The New ABA Standards for the Provision of Civil Legal Aid - Parts 1 & 2” as a webinar on Monday, May 23, beginning at 1 p.m.
The standards have provided guidance to the nation’s legal aid organizations on best practices for the delivery of legal services to their clients. They recently underwent a year-long revision and redrafting process which has resulted in a newly adopted set of
standards that reflect today’s legal aid practice.
This six-hour training is designed for legal aid organization leaders, managers, staff, funders, and board members to learn how the new standards have been drafted to support the provision of high-quality legal services and to ensure that organizations are managed effectively.
Among the speakers at the webinar will be Angela S. Tripp of Michigan Legal Help.
Cost for the webinar is $150 for ABA members and $225 for non-members. To register, visit www.americanbar.org and click on “events.”
