Turning Outrage Into Action: The Pro Bono Response to Family Separation

The U.S. government separated more than 2,000 migrant children from their parents in the spring and summer of 2018. Millions of Americans were outraged. Thousands of lawyers from diverse practice backgrounds have turned that outrage into action, delivering pro bono legal services to separated parents and children. Learn about how the Austin legal community responded to the family separation crisis at the Mithoff Programs annual Pro Bono Luncheon.
