Navy Legalmen
The CMPA has been supporting the Navy Legalmen currently serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. While we have not had a Legalman to support in recent months, we have been informed by Lori Thompson, Coordinator of NFPA’s Navy Legalmen Outreach Program that she has been contacted by many new Legalmen and the CMPA should receive the name of our new Legalman soon with an eye towards sending the next care package in October. Lori asks that we send care packages to our assigned Legalman every two months. If you would like to donate materials for the care package or if your firm/company would be interested in taking the lead on a bi-monthly care package, please let the Board know. The attached link contains a list of general items that should be collected for the care packages: (see doc A1108746).
Writing Opportunities
Writing opportunities are available for the NFPA Paralegal Reporter. The following is a list of themes for upcoming Paralegal Reporter issues, including guidelines and deadlines for submission of written materials.
