ACC Pro Bono Spotlight
ACC chapters offer more and more opportunities for members to engage in pro bono legal services. ACC Central Ohio is an excellent example of the increasing variety and sophistication of ACC chapter pro bono programs. The chapter started with a popular pro bono event, co-hosting a Clinic in a Box program in May 2013. At that clinic, Eric Henricks, Assistant General Counsel at Nationwide Insurance and co-chair of the chapter's pro bono committee, saw the potential for members to continue assisting local nonprofits, resulting in the Central Ohio Legal Education Series for Nonprofits. Three events have been hosted thus far. You can read about each in the following blogs:
