Chapters are encouraged to report their projects in order to inspire the participation of others, and they may engage in a multitude of project types. Projects incorporate a wide range of activities, from pro bono assistance and work with law students to partnerships with community organizations, government agencies, and local bar associations.

JRLCS’ 2016 Worldwide Week of Service will take place October 23 through October 29 and chapters can access assistance and resources through the organization’s website. Resources also include links and information regarding pro bono work. For more information, visit jrcls.org.
