Rapid Response Attorney Roles

Northern California Rapid Immigration Response Network Survey

This survey was created by the Northern California Rapid Immigration Response Network, and is being coordinated and hosted by the Justice & Diversity Center of The Bar Association of San Francisco.

Results of this survey will be shared by members of the Northern California Rapid Immigration Response Network.

The network is undertaking this survey at this time to assess the volunteer resources and interest available for the development of a regional rapid response program. We have an initial plan for a rapid response network that will be refined based on the results to this survey. Responding to this survey does not obligate you to undertake any particular responsibility at this time. The results will allow us to develop the structure of the rapid response in light of the actual skills, capacity and needs of volunteers.

Visit our website for more information about our program and a complete description of volunteer roles.

Thank you for taking the time to fill out this survey. Further information about the next steps for this program will be emailed to you in a few weeks once we have analyzed the information received.
