Eleven paralegal students from the Justice Center Paralegal Studies Certificate program volunteered to assist at the first Alaska Federation of Natives (AFN) Conference Legal Clinic held Thursday and Friday, October 20 and 21 at the Dena'ina Center. Prof. Deb Periman, J.D., is the coordinator of the Paralegal Studies Certificate program.
Clients had free consultations with volunteer lawyers from the Alaska Bar Association. The paralegal student volunteers welcomed clients, notified the volunteer lawyers when clients had arrived, and provided clerical support for the printing of final documents. 81 clients from 24 Alaskan communities were served.
The event was sponsored by AFN, Alaska Legal Services Corporation (ALSC), Alaska Native Justice Center, and the Alaska Bar Association.
