Pro Bono Net and Lone Star Legal Aid officially launched this Advocacy Center in August 2018, a new feature of DisasterLegalAid.org, a national online clearinghouse dedicated to providing comprehensive and timely information on legal issues impacting communities hit by natural disasters. We aim to use this area as a means to facilitate connections between advocates working in disaster legal aid. Please feel free to reach out with your ideas and feedback!

The 2018 National Celebration of Pro Bono is October 21-27, 2018.  The ABA Standing Committee on Pro Bono and Public Service is proud to join with ABA President Elect Bob Carlson to encourage you to plan and participate in events focused on disaster resiliency as part of the 2018 National Celebration of Pro Bono.

September is National Disaster Preparedness month, which is the perfect lead up to the 2018 National Celebration of Pro Bono.  We are asking you to do your part to assist with disaster resiliency efforts by offering pro bono assistance to survivors or evacuees of disasters or by helping your community to prepare for a disaster.

Visit the National Celebration of Pro Bono website for planning resources and ideas, to purchase items for your event, or simply to learn more! Contact the ABA’s Center for Pro Bono to help facilitate your planning.
