ANNOUNCEMENTS
Welcome to Equal Justice Works AmeriCorps
It has already been an incredible 2010 for the AmeriCorps Fellowship program. Here are just a few of the program highlights from February:
- We have already awarded four Innovation Grant requests! Please visit the Innovation Grant site for project details. Please keep the great ideas coming and submit a proposal!
- JR LaPlante’s "Defractionation Tour: 40 wills in 4 days" begins March 7th. The Class Representatives will join Equal Justice Works in South Dakota to support this great project. Follow us on Twitter @AmeriCorps_EJW as we travel South Dakota with JR, Josh, and Cheryl from Access to Justice South Dakota.
- The Equal Justice Works blog has started the recovery and foreclosure series and we are seeing hundreds of hits a day.
Reminders
- If your site is participating in Summer Corps, you will need to send Marty the names of the law students you would like to enroll into Summer Corps using this form.
