Looking for Legal Experience this Summer?
Spend your summer volunteering at the Self-Help Web Center
(SHWC) in Room 602 of the Daley Center.
The SHWC has three Internet-enabled computer workstations
that give self-represented litigants access to user-friendly,
web-based tools and resources created by Illinois Legal
Aid Online. SHWC users can utilize Illinois Legal Aid Online’s
content to better understand their legal issue and court
procedures. In addition, over fifty document assembly interviews
are now available to help visitors complete many common
court forms and letters.
SHWC is currently seeking volunteer web facilitators. Volunteers
gain real-world experience by helping self-represented and
under-represented litigants access legal information through
the Internet. To become an SHWC volunteer or to learn more
about this program contact Michael Hoffman at mhoffman1@kentlaw.edu.
