2009 Participating Schools and Attorney Advisors

Teens & The Law
For the past seven years the Genesee County Bar Association has recruited volunteer attorneys to discuss the law to area high school students through our "Teens & The Law" program. Topic include laws which are pertinent to their lifestyles and not usually covered in civics and government classes.

Senior Outreach
Volunteer attorneys speak to senior citizens throughout the county about estate planning, durable power of attorney and many other important issues. For more information please contact Ann Lossing Ruwart, Pro Bono Coordinator LSEM, at (810) 234-2621.
