Working with the boards of Jacksonville Area Legal Assistance and Three Rivers Legal Services in Jacksonville, Florida, CLAE recently sponsored its first day-long workshop on Board Development: The Legal Aid Context.  Recognizing the critical role of legal aid boards of directors, the Florida Bar Foundation and Massachusetts Legal Assistance Corporation jointly funded the development of this new curriculum. Organized around eight key roles that legal aid boards fulfill and tracking recently promulgated ABA Standards of Practice and LSC Performance Criteria related to governance, the training focuses specifically on the legal aid context and the board's critical role in supporting and advancing legal aid program mission. Click here for more information about CLAE's new Board Development curriculum and training resources.
