NFPA's Military Paralegal Outreach Program
The Indiana Paralegal Association has joined the National Federation of Paralegal Associations in its efforts to provide support and comfort to deployed military paralegals. For 2010, IPA has committed to sending a box to a military legal office every other month.
Our first box was shipped in January to the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower. The aircraft carrier is currently on a six month deployment providing security in the Mediterrean. With this box, we send our thoughts and prayers for their safe return to their friends and families.
Items to be shipped include hygiene items, food, snacks, books, puzzles, games, personal cards and notes. IPA also includes a copy of the lastest edition of The Precedent.
Our next box is scheduled to ship in March. Cash and item donations are accepted at each monthly meeting. If you are unable to attend a meeting, but would like to donate, contact Monica Dabio at probono@indianaparalegals.org.
