THE Imprint PROGRAM The Imprint Program is coming to Marion County! The program will pair a high school student with an attorney and provide them with the opportunity to form a one-on-one relationship through reading a popular book from the student’s curriculum and exchanging letters as pen-pals, providing the student an opportunity to interact with a positive adult role model. For some, the volunteer attorney is the only adult relationship the student has outside of school and family. The program will conclude with a pizza party where the student and volunteer attorney will meet face-to-face. It is a rewarding, meaningful program for both the students and volunteer attorneys. The time commitment is minimal, but the rewards are huge! More information will be coming your way soon.
Sponsored by MCBA, Mary Leonard Law Society and Willamette University College of Law. |
