This team is tasked with assessing the pro bono capacity in the State of Illinois and working with PILI Participants to ensure that there is a sufficient variety of pro bono legal opportunities. For example, PILI is actively working with Illinois Legal Aid Online to increase the use of IllinoisProBono.org by attorneys providing pro bono services. PILI will take primary responsibility for gathering, editing and maintaining content on the site. This team will include individuals from IllinoisProBono.org user groups, including attorneys from law firms, corporate legal departments and legal aid agencies and law schools. The team will provide feedback on the content of the site as well as recommendations to increase the site’s usefulness and statewide impact and will assist in the development of special user group sites within IllinoisProBono.org for law firm attorneys, corporate legal department attorneys, government attorneys, retired attorneys, law students and paralegals.
