Join your fellow Data Specialists and legal aid staff tasked with crunching data for our monthly office hours. These office hours will occur monthly on the second Thursday from 2 pm to 3 pm Eastern. On alternating months, a community member will share information on a topic of interest. In other months, the meeting will be a community forum for topics brought up by the group. Attendees will be able to ask questions, discuss relevant information, and receive feedback from the community.

The resources found on this page are curated by LSNTAP staff but made possible through the generosity of community members who so willingly share their knowledge. These resources are living documents and many have active forms so that the community may continue to contribute information. We welcome suggestions for additional resources that would benefit the community.
