Campana of Lycoming County Receives PBA Pro Bono Award, Jan. 16, 2018
In celebration of its long institutionalization of pro bono service, PBA President Sharon R. López addressed Lycoming Law Association members Jan. 16, and presented Peter Campana with a 2018 Pro Bono Award for his exceptional service to those in need. In 1985, the Lycoming Law Association established a pro bono program that featured a partnership of legal aid, the private bar and the local bar association. That program became the model that the PBA embraced with its 1990 Report of the Task Force on the Delivery of Legal Services to the Needy.
