ILCM Pro Bono Project’s DACA Renewal Pro Bono Training CLE
When: Wednesday, April 24, 2024 1 PM - 2:30 PM - As of April 1, 2024 there has been a fee increase for DACA applications with a benefit of $50 to online filers. This CLE will train attorneys and paralegals on how to advise DACA clients regarding the potential benefits and risks of filing both online and in paper, as well as best practices for online filing. DACA renewal cases generally take a new volunteer approximately 5-7 hours to complete, although the workload can vary by case. Attorneys have the option to either access the CLE for free with the commitment of taking a DACA renewal case pro bono through ILCM, or alternatively they may pay a small fee for the training and not take a case through our office. This could benefit attorneys who are interested in the subject matter but cannot commit to taking a case at this time. After the training, ILCM will place pre-screened DACA renewal clients with attendees for full pro bono representation. Attorneys who are able to commit to representing an ILCM DACA client (or pay the small fee) can register at the link below to attend the CLE. We are applying for 1.5 CLE credits for the training.
