A campaign to raise awareness about the need for pro bono outreach did even better than its organizers at the Connecticut Bar Association's Young Lawyers Section anticipated, with more than $2 million worth of pro-bono legal services recorded in just three months.
The group set the lofty goal last Fall of trying to get members of the bar statewide to pledge a total of $1 million worth of pro bono services to be completed between March and May. The pro bono work that was done during the "$1 Million Pro Bono Service Campaign" helped provide representation for a variety of low-income people in need. Programs that benefitted from the program included legal aid organizations throughout the state.
