Every day, people turn to libraries for help with urgent issues – including housing, family, immigration, and more. These issues often involve legal needs, but finding the right legal support can be challenging. Oregon Law Help<https://oregonlawhelp.org/> is a new tool designed to make that work easier.

Hosted by the Oregon State Bar, this 45-minute webinar will help library staff use Oregon Law Help confidently and effectively. It will include:

·       Opportunities to ask questions during a live Q&A. 

Libraries play a vital role in connecting people to information and services in their communities. Oregon Law Help is a tool you can rely on to support and strengthen the work you’re already doing.  Register here<https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/sDLR0X7yRbmc5I3YHjzY1Q>.
