Presenting student organizations: Domestic and Sexual Violence Project
Join the Domestic and Sexual Violence Project (DSVP) as we host Neighbors United for Mutual Support (NUMS) for an insightful discussion on how law students can support asylum seekers through pro bono volunteer opportunities. NUMS representatives will provide an overview of the asylum process, highlight the legal and humanitarian challenges faced by applicants, and share ways students can get involved as volunteers in their Woodlawn-based legal clinic. Lunch will be provided!
