IAALS will break new ground in developing best practices for these new legal professionals (similar to nurse practitioners)—including a model for use nationwide—and we will equip states with the tools they need to educate, train, and regulate them.
But we cannot do this alone. We need your help in ensuring that people everywhere, regardless of income, can finally get the legal help they need. With your gift, we can transform what it means to access justice, and deliver on our country’s promise of justice for all. | This 1Day4DU, please donate and support Allied Legal Professionals—and commit to the fight in ensuring access to justice for all.
Watch our video to learn more about this essential, urgent project, and how you can get involved. | | To donate: you can either schedule your donation in advance or let us know how much you'd like to donate, and we'll send you a reminder to make the payment on May 18, 2022. | |
