Job o'the Day: Be KIND to Kids
By Jamie Bence
It’s that time again! Please note that a very similar job to this one is located in KIND’s DC office, but in an effort to be geographically diverse, I’ve selected the New York listing.
KIND seeks a Supervising Attorney for Pro Bono Programs to help manage and oversee the provision of pro bono legal representation to unaccompanied children through KIND’s network of major law firms and corporate partners in New York, NY. This includes supervising the work and staff of KIND’s office in New York; serving as a regional focal point in striving to implement KIND’s vision of ensuring that no child appear in immigration court alone; promoting volunteer support through outreach to and cultivation of relationships with local law firms, corporate legal departments, and other possible sources of pro bono representation; and serving as the primary liaison between KIND’s headquarters and its offices in New York.
The Supervising Attorney does not provide direct legal representation to unaccompanied children but will be responsible for facilitating their pro bono representation. He or she will report to KIND’s National Legal Services Director.
