This workshop will support INGOs, national nonprofits, Refugee-Led Organizations (RLOs), stateless-led organizations, and community-based groups to better understand the pro bono legal support available and develop strong partnership proposals ahead of the Refugee Rights Pro Bono Pitching Roundtable in October, where participating organizations will have the opportunity to present their projects directly to law firms. The session will also highlight successful pro bono partnerships, share practical tips and resources, and strengthen participants' understanding of how pro bono legal support can enhance organizational capacity, advocacy, research, governance, and access to justice initiatives for refugees, forcibly displaced, and stateless communities across the United States.
