The Texas Access to Justice Commission is pleased to offer the 2021 Virtual Pro Bono Spring Break Program. We invite law students currently residing in Texas and enrolled in an accredited law school to spend their spring break working with civil legal aid organizations that serve low-income Texans. The 2021 Virtual PBSB will be offered during two weeks, March 8-12 and March 15-19. Law students are not permitted to attend law school regular classes in conjunction with participation in the PBSB program since program participation is expected eight hours each day for one week Monday through Friday.
Don’t miss this opportunity to apply lecture and textbook knowledge to actual civil legal matters. Gain legal experience while working remotely with legal aid attorneys and create meaningful access to justice for people who cannot afford an attorney. Due to the far-reaching impact of COVID, and protect the health and safety of law students, legal aid staff, and Texas residents, this year, the PBSB program has been modified to allow students to work remotely.
