Description

The goal of this project is to create, train, and support a statewide Court Navigator Network (Network) of clerks and court staff. Network members serve as a bridge, linking courthouses throughout the state, to share ideas, develop new resources, and establish programs for assisting SRLs, perhaps through additional and new methods because of COVID-19. Over the past few years, the base of this Network has been the Illinois JusticeCorps program and the Self-Represented Litigant Coordinator (Coordinator) grant program. At the urging of the Illinois Judicial Conference, it is our mission is to maintain a Network with at least one member in every Judicial Circuit in the state.
