The Organization

The Legal Aid Association of California (LAAC) is the statewide membership organization of legal services nonprofits. Nearly 100 nonprofit civil legal aid providers around the state are members of LAAC. These civil legal aid nonprofits provide critical legal assistance to low-income Californians and ensure equal access to justice. LAAC serves and strengthens its members through advocacy, training, and support. LAAC does not directly provide legal services.

The Position

LAAC seeks a full-time Legal Technology Fellow (2020-2022) to work on our LawHelpCA website accessibility project. The fellow will work to implement changes to LAAC’s Drupal-based website LawHelpCA in conjunction with the website development team and the LAAC Program Attorney. Changes will include creation and improvement of a triage tool for the website, and implementation of best practices for readability and accessibility.

LAAC works collaboratively and intensively with prospective fellows to develop projects that address access to justice legal issues. LAAC is committed to fully supporting and advising the applicant during the application process to ensure that a high quality and well-informed application is compiled and submitted.
