3 Public Counsel CARES Project For nearly 25 years, Public Counsel staff and volunteers have been a constant presence in LA County s social service offices. We ve built a reputation of obtaining results for people struggling with poverty. Angelenos know that Public Counsel connects people to essential services, Public Counsel fights for people s dignity and rights and Public Counsel cares about their future. That s why we re announcing Public Counsel CARES, the new name for our signature General Relief Advocacy Project (GRAP). Public Counsel CARES stands for Connecting Angelenos to Resources and Essential Services. It also stands for the way our project has grown beyond protecting General Relief (GR) benefits to pushing for systemic changes and being a louder voice for Angelenos rights. For any attorney, law student, or non-attorney professional interested in volunteering, Public Counsel s CARES Project is the largest and most well-established legal advocacy program working on-site in multiple offices of the Los Angeles County Department of Public Social Services (DPSS). Each year hundreds of volunteer law students, attorneys and persons with no prior legal experience are trained in a one day experience consisting of an informational seminar in the morning and advocacy in the afternoon. In one day you will be able, with the supervision and support of our staff attorneys, to advocate on behalf of impoverished clients, helping them secure desperately needed shelter, food, healthcare, transportation and other social services and benefits. Qualifications: No prior experience in the subject area required. Time Commitment: Half day for training and half day for advocacy service. Contact Person: Leah Gasser-Ordaz, at lgasser-ordaz@publiccounsel.org; note: if you are from a law firm or business group and wish to coordinate a day of CARES advocacy for multiple members of your organization, please contact Ms Gasser-Ordaz to make appropriate arrangements. Guardianship Clinic Intake Night For a group of attorneys at a law firm or in-house corporate legal department who are interested in assisting unrepresented parties in filling out the paperwork and court forms necessary to establish a guardianship over an at-risk youth. Public Counsel s Guardianship Program, which facilitates guardianship appointments for youth at risk of entering the foster care system, will organize a single weekday evening clinic where a group of attorneys from a law firm or corporate in-house law department will come to Public Counsel, after the workday is over, meet with clients seeking guardianship appointments, and assist them in understanding the process and filling out the legal forms necessary to establish the guardianships. This is an outstanding way to engage a sizable number of attorneys from your organization to work together on a concerted project that is very discrete in nature. Our Guardianship Clinic legal team will first come to your offices at a convenient time to train your designated group of lawyers on the relevant area of law and procedure. Following the training, a scheduled weekday evening clinic will occur at Public Counsel s offices, at a date and time that is convenient for your colleagues (and, again, it would be after work hours). During the clinic, the trained attorneys will provide the services to the clients under the direct supervision of Public Counsel s Guardianship attorneys. There will be no legal work or follow up required following the clinic, which makes this program highly compatible with the volunteers busy work schedules. The team of volunteer attorneys who are interested in this project can participate just once, or Public Counsel can arrange a series of evening clinics of this nature to more regularly engage the volunteer attorneys from your organization. The number of clinics would depend on the volunteer attorneys interest and capacity. The guardianships involved are not contested (typically it is a grandparent or relative seeking the appointment). However, they are essential to the futures and well-being of the youth being represented.
4 Location and Time: Trainings at your offices at a date and time convenient to you. Clinics at Public Counsel, located at 610 S. Ardmore Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90005, at a date and time convenient to you. Qualifications: This is for attorneys with any level and type of experience. Contact Person: We invite you to form a team in your firm or organization and to contact Nicole Rivera Vazquez, at nrivera@publiccounsel.org, to schedule a training and a clinic. One-Time Ask a Lawyer Clinic for IP Lawyers and Employment Law Specialists: Discrete Intellectual Property and Employment Law Counseling Sessions with Non-Profit and Small Startup Clients One-Time Ask A Lawyer Clinic for IP Lawyers and Employment Law Specialists: Discrete Intellectual Property and Employment Law Counseling Sessions With Non-Profit and Small Start Up Clients For a group of attorneys at a law firm or in-house corporate legal department who have intellectual property expertise or who specialize in labor and employment law and who are interested in assisting non-profits and small startups at a single, discrete Ask A Lawyer session where you would analyze and answer questions face-to-face with clients on matters in these legal subject areas. Public Counsel s Community Development Project provides pro bono legal representation to numerous non-profit and small startup businesses that are serving the needs of low income communities. These businesses regularly have discrete intellectual property and employment law advisory matters that require immediate direction. The Community Development Project will arrange a single Ask A Lawyer clinic session for a group of interested attorneys in your law firm or in-house corporate legal department who have intellectual property or employment law expertise so the attorneys can meet with the clients and give them pointers and a roadmap to resolve the questions posed. There will not be any work for the volunteer attorneys beyond the one-time clinic. To the extent the clinic session identifies some broader ongoing legal need on the part of the client, Public Counsel will perform a follow up assessment to determine the nature of that matter and whether the matter is something we would want to place with pro bono counsel. The Ask A Lawyer session will occur on a weekday, and at a date and time that is convenient to your group of volunteers. To the extent there is desire and capacity in your firm or department to participate in multiple clinic sessions, additional clinics will be arranged based on this same model on other dates that are convenient to your colleagues. Location and Time: Clinics will be held at Public Counsel, located at 610 S. Ardmore Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90005, at a date and time convenient to you. If you would like to host a clinic at your offices, that is also a model Public Counsel would welcome. Qualifications: This is for a group of attorneys within a law firm or a corporate in-house practice group who have intellectual property or labor and employment law expertise. Contact Person: If you would like to form a group at your firm or organization to participate in one of these clinics, please contact Sarah Stegemoeller, at sstegemoeller@publiccounsel.org.
