[Agvisors] CALES consideration of free legal aid for students

[Buhrow, Danielle Pilar - (danielleb)]

Hello Nancy, Agvisors and student supporters on this listserv,

Sharing something I learned today:

ASUA student legal services<https://asuatoday.arizona.edu/what-we-do/student-legal-services> ended Feb. 2023.  I believe students not having this resource leaves a gap in related support and something that I would like to raise to CALES for consideration of providing a similar service to CALES students.

Having a free, CALES provided, legal resource for students would be beneficial for them and their progression towards degree completion.  Community resources shared on the above linked site are helpful, however, having UArizona provided support in this way is necessary especially to continue efforts towards a holistic perspective of support for our students.
This resource being made accessible to them and without a charge, would align with CALES strategic intent of being "the most effective, efficient and responsive<https://alvsce.arizona.edu/about/strategy>...enterprise on campus" towards the goal of being the "most sought-after place to be a part of", aligning with CALES CAS strategic plan mission of "increase retention, persistence and graduation", and alignment with one of UArizona's values, adaptation<https://www.arizona.edu/purpose-mission-values/adaptation>, "embracing change and be open to alternative ways of doing things".

Is there any way to explore providing a similar free service to CALES students?

If others know of any UArizona provided service similar to the now closed Legal Aid services please share, as I was unsuccessful in locating other resources than the site ASUA linked above.  I have a student needing this support right away and that is how I learned that the ASUA legal aid unit has closed.  Thank you for your consideration of exploring and implementing a CALES legal aid resource.


Thank You,
