Friend,
Good morning, and welcome to our weekly digest of current volunteer legal projects.
We have over 100 legal projects that need your help:

Join We The Action’s Voter Vanguard
We The Action
In recent years, the right to vote has been under threat. Through our Voter Vanguard campaign, volunteers will be on the front lines of protecting voting rights and democratic institutions, advising on voter outreach efforts, representing election administrators, and working to restore voting rights to newly returned citizens. Lawyers may be barred in any state.

Help Afghan Asylees with Green Card Applications
VECINA
More than 80,000 Afghans have evacuated to the US since 2021, and many have been granted asylum. The next important step on the path to permanent safety in the U.S. is applying for adjustment of status (green card), the process of becoming a lawful permanent resident. Attorneys are needed to assist Afghans granted asylum in filing these applications. Mentorship and training are provided, and lawyers may have any bar license.

Help a Rare Disease Nonprofit with Trademarks
Shwachman-Diamond Syndrome Alliance
Shwachman-Diamond Syndrome Alliance (SDS Alliance) is an organization dedicated to building a world where Shwachman-Diamond Syndrome (SDS) is curable. They are hoping to trademark their logos, names, and taglines and are seeking guidance and help throughout the process. This is a remote project, and lawyers may have any bar license.

On August 13 at 6pm ET, we will be hosting a WTA website demo for new volunteers to learn how to access their profile, explore the website, and find projects. You can register here. If you have other questions, set up a meeting with Oakey Daskas at the link here.
Best,
The We The Action Team
