Leadership

The ATJ Campaign is comprised of several volunteer committees dedicated to championing the effort of 14 civil legal aid programs in Michigan. The Steering Committee, an active body since its inception, regularly reviews and assesses the policies and progress of the Campaign. The Fundraising Committees (regional and statewide) are instrumental in engaging leaders from the legal community and educating their peers from on the importance of providing a legal support system for low-income populations.
