Historically, the climate of fear within low-income immigrant communities and the uncertainty around healthcare benefits have deterred immigrants from seeking medical care. Anxiety over immigration status and other socioeconomic barriers contribute to poorer health outcomes among those in the immigrant community. Medical-legal partnerships for immigrants (MLPIs) are designed to address these health disparities. By connecting immigrant patients with immigration and health law attorneys, medical institutions have noted improved access to health care and health outcomes. This training aims to provide an overview of some of the most common types of immigration issues that arise in the MLP context, and how pursuing appropriate immigration pathways can in turn allow patients to qualify for more comprehensive health care coverage. The program aims to empower attorneys to explore these types of partnerships for themselves, thereby playing a pivotal role in improving access to health care in vulnerable communities through legal representation, community outreach, and policy advocacy.

The BBA, in collaboration with Lawyers Concerned for Lawyers (LCL) is offering a three-part series directed at helping leaders improve their skills in three key areas-building connections, building capacity for difficult conversations, and building capacity for innovation. We strongly encourage BBA leaders and all BBA members that are leaders within their firm or organization to watch the introductory recording linked here and attend all three sessions. The series will end with a celebration during our June Community Connections Breakfast. Building Capacity for Innovation: Growing Your Leadership Skills for the Wellbeing of Your People and Your Business Building mindful awareness can increase our capacity for empathy and compassion but limiting beliefs can keep leaders stuck in their ways. This session explores how to change our mindset. For leaders, this can be especially challenging when trying to implement new policies, change billing systems, learn new technology or support their teams in stressful times. The conversation will begin around what is “mindset” and how to move from a fixed to flexible mindset including working through resistance to change. Through experiential exercises, leaders will practice creating a more resilient mindset using techniques based on research around how to move toward a stress-is-enhancing mindset. Questions?

Many of the men and women who served in the U.S. armed forces are cut off from veterans' services and benefits because they were given a less-than-honorable discharge. They may have served in combat or have suffered physical or mental wounds, but are nevertheless unable to access much-needed treatment and support from federal and state veterans agencies because of their discharge status. In many cases, the origin of their need for support—for example, service-related post-traumatic stress disorder or having experienced military sexual trauma—also contributed to the conduct that led to their less-than-honorable discharges. Fortunately, DOD record correction boards can change these unjust discharges. Unfortunately, despite recent increases in grant rates, the boards still deny or only partially grant most applications. But there is another way: appealing to federal court. This program will offer an in-depth training on appealing negative board decisions under the Administrative Procedure Act. A panel of experts will share their experiences and offer best practices for challenging board decisions. The discussion will cover the when, where and why of deciding to go to federal court, EAJA fees, recent class actions, and other strategic considerations. This program builds upon prior discharge upgrade pro bono trainings. Attorneys who did not attend the prior trainings are welcome to attend this training. To access previous recordings and supporting materials, click the link here. Attorneys who are interested in volunteering to represent a veteran in a discharge upgrade with the Veterans Justice Pro Bono Partnership, a project of the Veterans Legal Clinic at the Legal Services Center of Harvard Law School, should contact Margaret Kuzma at mkuzma@law.harvard.edu.

This program is held in remembrance of Hon. Maureen Mulligan, whose collaborative and inspiring leadership as the Chair of the ABA's Commission on Women in Profession from 2020-2023 was integral to the formulation and publication of the ABA's "Legal Careers of Parents and Child Caregivers" report. Last October, the ABA's Commission on Women in the Profession issued a report entitled “Legal Careers of Parents and Child Caregivers: Results and Best Practices from a National Study of the Legal Profession”. Based on a national survey of lawyers and a series of national focus groups, this comprehensive study documents the continued pervasiveness of the “motherhood/caregiver penalty” in the legal profession and its negative impact on the advancement of women in the profession. Equally important, the report sets forth thirteen recommendations that lawyers and legal organizations can adopt to create a more equitable workplace. Join us in conversation with one of the authors of the report and former ABA president, Paulette Brown, and the project's co-chair, Michelle Browning-Coughlin, to discuss the findings and how to implement the recommendations. This program will offer the attendees an opportunity to more clearly understand the challenges and implications of the “motherhood/caregiver penalty” on women's advancement in the legal profession and how legal organizations can implement practical policies and practices to remove it.

Clients sometimes get ahead of themselves. They can become so excited about a new thing they've discovered that they forget to ask whether they should do it. When those questions involve personal data and privacy, smart clients eventually approach their attorneys and ask “This new thing we can do, is it creepy or cool?” That new thing might involve using algorithmic analysis of existing data to infer new personal data about the client's users, creating a new profiling function that improves functionality of existing user applications, etc. But the question “Is this creepy or cool?” is one that attorneys should be able to walk their clients through. In this webinar, John Weaver and Andrew Sutton from McLane Middleton's artificial intelligence practice group discuss how they approach this question with clients and offer recommendations for how other attorneys can do the same thing.
