Dearest EDRM Community,
The phrase of the week is home fires.
As the holidays pass and we anticipate the turning of the New Year to 2024, EDRM is grateful for our generous and resilient community and the family, friends and organizations that support them and us. The greater community and world are experiencing an elevated need for the basics of human existence and we are grateful for the efforts of those to address the needs and negotiate safe and lasting peace. We wish all of you a wonderful year ahead.

In Legal Tech this Week
We are all hopeful for festivities and warmth this season, For some of us requested vacations are cancelled and the work must be done while others of us are told that our work is no longer required. Be on the lookout for positions for our friends unemployed, unceremoniously at the holiday, and pitch in to help those stuck at their desks. Be on special lookout for those away from family and friends at this time of year. If you or someone you know would benefit from some support, please reach out to info@edrm.net to learn more and join our weekly Community Support Call on Tuesday now in its 202nd week.
