Legal Information in Arabic Moves Forward



For the past several months, a group of Legal Aid and Defender employees have been working on a project that will create a streaming video presented in Arabic on Michigan's statewide legal website assisting residents of Middle Eastern descent in working with local courts.

Two members of that group are attorney Mayada Saroki (left) and Gina Polley, director of government and community affairs, shown here reviewing a draft script for the video.

The project is made possible through a technical initiative grant from Legal Services Corporation.
