The benefits and opportunities associated with using pro bono to achieve law graduates' and practicing lawyers' professional development goals have been the topic of a NALP Bulletin column called "Pro Bono/PD Corner." Written by the 2012-2013 NALP Pro Bono and Professional Development Task Force, each "Pro Bono/PD Corner" presents quick tips related to linking PD and pro bono. This page presents all of the columns in one place so that they can collectively become a resource guide:
