Volunteer attorneys, law students and interpreters took part, and language support in Mandarin and Cantonese is regularly provided at the clinics.
Upcoming sessions in the series include November 18 in Manhattan, at the AAFE Community Center, 111 Norfolk Street, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., and December 2 in Queens, at the AAFE One Flushing Community Center, 133-29 41st Ave, 2nd Floor, Flushing, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.
