  State Law builds bridges between academics\, practitioners\, and policymak
 ers. For this year’s State of the South\, we have partnered with Georgia St
 ate Law’s Legal Analytics and Innovation Initiative to showcase how univers
 ities partner with outside entities\, using both traditional and cutting-ed
 ge research techniques\, to move the access to justice needle in the South.
 \n\nAt this year’s conference\, we are highlighting collaborations across t
 he region between university researchers and non-profit organizations and/o
 r government entities\, as well as the challenges and opportunities that ca
 n come with doing such work in the South. We welcome those who have engaged
  in such collaborations\, those who want to learn more about how such partn
 erships come about or operate\, those who would like to engage in such coll
 aboration in the future (either as researcher or research partner)\, and an
 yone who is curious about how such partnerships can advance access to justi
 ce goals. \n\nWe hope you’ll join us from 1 to 3:30 p.m. on Friday\, May 6\

  researchers and their research partners\, followed by a conversation with
