Yale Undergraduate Legal Aid Association
The Yale Undergraduate Legal Aid Association (YULAA) connects dedicated, capable Yale students to legal service organizations for mutually beneficial volunteering opportunities. Our goal is to serve as an important resource for the New Haven community. Legal service organizations are often understaffed for the amount of work they have. YULAA volunteers do actual legal work, whether that be translating legal documents, writing affidavits for asylum-seekers, or assisting with pardon applications.
