Access to Justice ATJ Subcommittees
ATJ Subcommittees - The programs and projects sponsored and implemented by the ATJ Committee are accomplished through the work of four major ATJ Subcommittees.
Disaster Planning Subcommittee
This subcommittee is tasked with the ongoing coordination and implementation of the LSBA’s Justice Community disaster response through partnership with ABA-YLD Disaster Liaison, Pro Bono Organizations, Louisiana Appleseed, Louisiana Legal Services Providers, Law Schools, and other stakeholders.
This subcommittee is tasked with support of activities coordinated through local pro bono entities to engage the private bar and judiciary in pro bono efforts, develop activities which support increased involvement and to recognize those who actively provide volunteer legal services.
The subcommittee will focus on the implementation of the recently developed Pro Bono Action Plan and the National Pro Bono Celebration.
These subcommittees are often aided by ad hoc committees and work groups.
