    • About Us

It brings to Chicago “community activism lawyering,” a model of legal practice that brings lawyers and activists together in a collaborative pursuit to maximize their respective resources. By creating partnerships between lawyers and grassroots community organizations, CALA will maximize both legal and activism resources to produce greater and more impactful services.
