We The Action Volunteer,

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

With the recent news about the future of Roe v. Wade, please know that We The Action is actively speaking with reproductive justice organizations to find the best, highest impact opportunities for lawyers to contribute to the fight for reproductive justice. To ensure you see the latest opportunities as our partners post them, log in today and make sure that your profile includes reproductive justice under “Causes You Care About.”



There is also a time sensitive project that needs lawyers with criminal justice experience to attend rallies supporting abortion access on Saturday, May 14. If you don't have criminal justice experience, please help us spread the word to your network!


We have more than 110 legal projects that need your help:

	6—10 HOURS Help Afghan Public Defenders Navigate American Immigration System The International Legal Foundation Afghan public defenders who were working to defend the rights of vulnerable people in  Afghanistan need help applying for asylum, refugee status, or humanitarian parole as they flee violence. Training & mentorship provided. This is a remote opportunity, and lawyers from any state are welcome to volunteer.

	1—5 HOURS Legal Support Needed at Abortion Access Rallies Planned Parenthood With abortion access rallies planned nationwide on Saturday, March 14, lawyers are needed to monitor the events, report concerns to local event organizers, and be on call if organizers need legal support.

If you're looking for other opportunities to get involved in the fight for reproductive justice, our friends at United State of Women recently launched their Abortion Access Hub, where you can sign up to hear from USOW about other advocacy projects.

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