Pro Bono Committee
CDPA is very involved in various Pro Bono activities in the Capital District
and has increased its involvement significantly with the Albany County Bar
Association on the many Pro Bono activites conducted by them, such as the
Run Against Domestic Violence and Law Day Clinics, as well as various
clinics sponsored by The Legal Project. The committee has also worked on
getting the association more involved with Senior Law Day, sponsored by the
Government Law Center of the Albany Law School.
The committee works on contacting various not-for profit agencies to
determine a need for our membership to participate in pro bono activities. The
committee is then in charge of notifying and recruiting members of the
association to volunteer/participate in such pro bono activites. The committee
then works closely with the various organizations/associations to make the
necessary arrangements to involve our membership. This committee meets on
an as needed basis, depending on the need to conduct a meeting.
CDPA prides itself on its involvement with pro bono activities and encourages
all members to get involved to assist those members of the community who
cannot otherwise afford to pay for legal services. Our goal is to to use our
knowledge and provide our services to assist those people who need it the
most. We are an association not only for paralegals, but for the general public
as well and there is no better way to show this than through the Pro Bono
Committee. We have certainly proven that when it comes to assisting the
public, CDPA is a very strong alliance of members and will continue to be.
For information on Pro Bono events that are coming up, please contact the
Director.
