CIR Update

CIR pilot

The CIR pilot, hosted by Neighborhood Legal Services Program (NLSP), will begin in June 2024. Two CIR Navigators, staffed at NLSP, will route callers with family law issues to participating organizations. The pilot program will help to fine-tune the technology and protocols for the CIR System.


Interest in hosting full launch of the CIR System

DCBF is seeking informal statements of interest from organizations that want to be considered to host the full launch of the CIR System. No specific format is required, and statements of interest are not binding agreements. Please keep an eye on our social media over the next few weeks for more information! To submit an informal statement of initial interest, please email innovation@dcbarfoundation.org by June 28.
