Please join members of the Domestic Violence Pro Bono Project on Friday, March 1 from 4:00 pm – 6:00pm to help Bay Area Legal Aid compile the information they need to lobby the California State Legislature for improvements to child custody processes for domestic violence survivors. Room TBD.

California law contains broad mandates for child custody mediation, including in situations where there has been a history of domestic violence, but how each county chooses to implement these mandates varies widely. Bay Area Legal Aid needs our help determining what each county’s practices are, and compiling them into a report that they can use to show the legislature. We will be having a 2-hour work session to put this information together for them. HOURS WILL COUNT FOR PRO BONO CREDIT and ample snacks will be provided!

Please RSVP here.
