justice-needs-featured.pngIAALS is excited to announce the creation of a new Advisory Committee in support of its US Justice Needs project. In collaboration with HiiL, IAALS is conducting research to assess the justice needs of people and businesses in the United States. IAALS and HiiL have created an Advisory Committee to inform the work of the project, including assisting in tailoring HiiL’s individual survey for administration in the United States and developing a survey for businesses. The Advisory Committee members will participate in a triangulation workshop in 2020, following administration of the survey, to provide insights on the preliminary data prior to publication.
