Coding Justice is a DC Pro Bono Week collaboration event between social justice nonprofits and the tech world in partnership with Washington Council of Lawyers, DC Legal Hackers, and Dechert LLP. At the event, members of the legal community will join tech-savvy volunteers to explore tech solutions for legal problems. We will together discuss pre-submitted legal problems, considering what tech solutions could be crafted, and then select one legal problem that we will design a tech solution for at a later date.

We are looking for volunteers from both the legal community and the tech world: lawyers from all sectors are welcome. Tech volunteers with computer science or civic hacking experience in the following areas are needed to help us tackle this exciting project:

Design thinking
Data management
Technology solutions
Technical design

A light dinner will be provided to nourish our creative problem-solving.

We hope you will join us for this exciting opportunity!
