Federal Bar Association - South Florida Chapter

Calling all dedicated attorneys! The Civil Discourse and Difficult Decisions program (CD3) invites you to become an Attorney Volunteer. Through CD3, we welcome local high school students to our federal courthouses where they hone their decision-making skills and practice civil discourse with federal judges and local attorneys. In this 2-hour program, Attorney Volunteers coach students during mock arguments, guide them through jury deliberations, and foster valuable discussions. If you may be interested, we invite you to sign up as a volunteer on November 14, and/or December 12 for a CD3 event via this https://loom.ly/uAAZIO8. For further information, please contact our volunteer coordinator, Jessica Neer McDonald at jessica@neermcd.com.
