We The Action Volunteer,

Good morning, and welcome to our weekly digest of current volunteer legal projects.

We have nearly 60 legal projects that need your help:

	21+ HOURS Help Marijuana Justice Org Research & Draft Legislation Marijuana Justice Help a marijuana justice organization research and draft specific legislation relating to resentencing and/or ending supervision for people convicted of cannabis-related offenses. This is a remote opportunity, and lawyers can be barred in any state.
	1—5 HOURS Help Terminally-Ill Patient Prepare Advance Directives I Am ALS A terminally-ill person with ALS needs help preparing advance directives, power of attorney documentation, a will, and other estate planning. This is a remote opportunity, and lawyers can be barred in any state.
	11—20 HOURS Help Reunite Immigrant Families Rocky Mountain Immigrant Advocacy Network Detained immigrants facing deportation need lawyers to help represent them in bond hearings to remain with their family in the United States. Although this project is based in Colorado, this is a remote opportunity and lawyers from any state are welcome to volunteer.
	11—20 HOURS Help Advance Diversity, Equity & Inclusion in Government Inclusive America An organization promoting diversity in government needs help reviewing previous Government Accountability Office (GAO) reports on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) and developing a template for recommendations. This is a remote opportunity, and lawyers can be barred in any state, though volunteers must have experience in federal legislative advocacy.
	11—20 HOURS Help Protect Immigrants from Deportation Mississippi Center for Justice Following mass raids by ICE, hundreds of immigrants are currently detained and need help avoiding deportation. This remote project is only available to Spanish-speaking lawyers or those who have access to translation services, but those lawyers can be based in any state.
	11—20 HOURS Help a Trans Woman Stay in the Country Trans Empowerment Project Help an immigrant trans woman, who is married to an American citizen, avoid deportation and navigate an immigration system that has thus far denied her citizenship. This is a remote opportunity, and lawyers from any state are welcome to volunteer.

We hope you and your loved ones are healthy and safe.

Best,
