IBO – Domestic Violence, etc.

 

IBOTech4JusticeBuoy

Personally and through the InternetBar.Org (IBO), I have been supporting projects under the banner of Tech For Justice that focus on access to justice for under-served or excluded populations.  The first of the hack-a-thons was held in Austin, Texas, and focused on reporting in the area of child custody and parenting orders for low income families.  More recently, a hack-a-thon was held in Albuquerque, New Mexico, that focused on issues related to domestic violence.  The platform developed there, Buoy, is available to any legal aid organization in the U.S., and can be offered to any individual who wants to download the app to a mobile phone.  Here are links to a brochure about Buoy:  Outside  Inside

As we move forward, there will be a hack-a-thon in Little Rock, Arkansas, early in 2016, and a demonstration hack-a-thon at the ABA Tech Conference in Chicago.
