a project of the Public Interest Law Initiative (PILI)

Several years ago, PBI developed a Pro Bono Manual to assist firms and corporations to start or reinvigorate their pro bono programs. Through the work of this Team, PBI was able to develop two entirely new resources for law firms and corporations.  The PBI Pro Bono Reference Guide: A Resource for Law Firm Programs was released in September 2007.  The PBI Pro Bono Reference Guide: A Resource for  Corporate Programs was released in October 2007. Available for the first time on-line through the PBI website, both Reference Guides are over 60 pages and are filled with a variety of information on the best practices of pro bono program development and administration.
