Revitalizing & Reengaging: Pro Bono in 2023
Leaders from a cross-section of the pro bono community will discuss how their approaches to pro bono have been impacted over the last few years and share examples of how they are adapting their programs for success. Through this discussion, we will share and develop strategies to effectively engage and, in some cases, reengage the legal community in pro bono service in the year to come.
Facilitators and Panelists:
- Kimberly Barton, JPMorgan Chase & Co.
- Perry Browder, Simmons Hanly Conroy
