CBF Pro Bono Support Program
As lawyers, we have the unique ability and responsibility to use our training and skills to ensure that those who cannot afford our services have access to the legal system. Pro bono programs in and around Chicago have a variety of opportunities for you to help, and the CBF is available to help you find a pro bono opportunity that fits your skills, interests and availability. The CBF Pro Bono Opportunities Guide is designed to help you find a pro bono program that fits your needs. For a hard copy of the Guide or for more information on pro bono opportunities, contact CBF Pro Bono Director Kelly Tautges at ktautges [at} chicagobar.org or visit our website
