Hey guys! My name is Eliot Sasaki and I work for the largest funder of civil legal aid in the U.S. (I actually signed up for this forum a few months ago, but haven’t posted until now.)

I’m interested in expanding access to justice and building our capacity as a community to ensure that more people get the legal help they need. Much of my work now is focused on sharing best practices and innovations in legal services. Shameless plug: I have a blog where I write about these best practices and innovations (Innovations in Legal Aid – Medium) - feel free to check it out!

Anyway, I look forward to being more active in this forum and sharing ideas with you all!

Hello global leaders! Greetings from Honduras. I’m a Program Associate with Global Brigades and last year we started a new Legal Empowerment Program to increase access to justice for rural communities. My passion hobby is being part of Human Rights Connected–we are a team of independent international collaborators working to provide human rights defenders and grassroots activists with practical tools. If anyone has any legal empowerment resources/best practices that are specific to Central America and/or Honduras please pass along. I look forward to sharing, learning and collaborating with everyone. Appreciate the warm welcome.
