Another Week

We had another productive week. It is inspiring to see the attorneys that give so generously of their time. I am getting invaluable experience fielding potential clients, recruiting attorneys and answering Legal Line. I wanted to get into law to help those less fortunate and I am getting a first hand account of how to do it. This is an incredible network of dedicated people working to make a difference in the lives of those who really need it. I am very proud to have some small part in it. We are going down to the coast this week for some Katrina legal clinics. It sounds very exciting (except the part about leaving at 4 in the morning). I have not been to the coast since the hurricane so I am curious to see how things are progressing. I also am going to help out at Stewpot. Stewpot is an organization that started as a soup kitchen but has now expanded to provide shelter, clothing, counseling, and other services to those in need. This is proving to be a rewarding way to spend my summer.
