The Mississippi Volunteer Lawyers Project (MVLP) joins the nation in celebrating pro bono during the month of October. This celebration is a coordinated national effort to meet the ever-growing needs of this country's most vulnerable citizens by encouraging and supporting local efforts to expand the delivery of pro bono legal services, and by showcasing the great difference that pro bono lawyers make to the nation, its system of justice, its communities and, most of all, to the clients served. MVLP has planned many events this month including a Celebrate Pro Bono Awards Reception scheduled on Wednesday, October 24. To review the Celebrate Pro Bono events scheduled for the entire month of October 2012, please see the attached Flyer.
