Sidley Austin dedicated the week of July 18-22 to providing hands-on support to those in need through their Sidley Service Week.
Tuesday, July 19th, the events were geared primarily towards Children's Law Center in both learning about the work and helping clients. In the morning, Sidley Austin attorneys and staff gathered to prepare cards for the at-risk youth that Children's Law Center serves. That evening, Sidley Austin employees were encourgaed to attend an event hosted at CLC to learn more about available pro bono opportunities.
As a mental health professional, it’s a pleasure to work with Children’s Law Center because of their attention to the full spectrum of a child and family’s needs. I rely on CLC attorneys to provide background and insight.
Meaningful adult relationships are often few and far between for many of the children I see in neglect and abuse cases. It speaks volumes to me when a troubled adolescent names a CLC attorney as someone they trust.
CLC’s attorneys go above and beyond to understand the mental health aspects of their cases.
