Training Highlights
This training will provide an overview of the housing and consumer issues facing low-income individuals and families in Maryland, the court processes they encounter related to evictions and affidavit judgment collection actions and an overview of the applicable law. The training will prepare volunteers to assist hotline callers by providing guidance and referrals. The training will also equip volunteers with the knowledge and awareness they need to get the most out of courtroom observations.
Commitment
This volunteer opportunity is open to lawyers, paralegals, and law students. Participants can attend/view the training free in exchange for their commitment to volunteer at one Courtroom Advocacy Project Hotline shift within one year.
The CAP Hotline operates Monday through Friday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Hotline shifts are typically 3 hours and can be done from the comfort of your home or office using the Zoom app.
