Connecticut Unemployment Action Center

Connecticut Unemployment Action Center is a student run organization devoted to the representation of unemployment insurance claimants in the greater Hartford area, with the potential to expand throughout Connecticut. Because the UAC is directly responsible for advising claimants, we will give law students exposure to pro bono work and cultivate an interest in public service early in their legal careers. The primary intention of the UAC is to match people seeking to secure unemployment insurance benefits with law students eager to gain practical experience through public service. The organization is managed by a student-staffed board that runs its day-to-day operations and shapes its future directions.
