Outreach & Training
DVP consistently offers free education to service providers and the community at large.
Our attorneys and clinicians offer forums and legal clinics on-site at schools, hospitals, other agencies and local libraries throughout the five boroughs of NYC.
In addition, we provide legal education through technical assistance in group and individual environments. In a typical month, our staff hosts 10 education and outreach events to varying size groups.
In 2020, we launched a series of virtual Know Your Rights trainings, which can be viewed here.
