n conjunction with the Atlanta Bar Association’s Pro Bono
March Madness program, TIP hosted its annual Spring
Volunteer Training Seminar, “Advocating for the Truant
Child” on March 19 at the State Bar of Georgia. For more
than 23 years, the collaborative efforts of the Atlanta Bar and
TIP have resulted in the recruitment of countless invaluable
volunteers, producing one of the most successful pro bono
partnerships in Atlanta’s legal community.
Please join us in welcoming James Bland, GreenCourt Legal
Technologies, Annette Bullard, Baldwin County Schools,
Terry Bushell, Marie Meltzer, solo practitioner, and Nichelle
