– Get free tax form preparation and financial literacy educational programming at FIU Law –

In preparation for the 2016 tax season, FIU Law will provide free tax filing services to low-to-middle income families in locations throughout Miami-Dade County. The program is made possible by a grant from the AARP Foundation Tax-Aide. The FIU Law-AARP Tax-Aide Program will offer free tax assistance and deliver financial literacy educational programming including assistance with completion of the FAFSA filing for college-bound students.

The program seeks volunteers to assist with these efforts. Volunteers will be trained in several types of positions. These include tax preparer; technology coordinator; greeter; community coordinator and other leadership/administrative roles.

“FIU Law is excited about this new endeavor and partnership,” said Senior Associate Dean for Clinical Education, Experiential Learning & Engagement Michelle D. Mason. “This gives FIU Law and our students another great opportunity to engage with the community and to help those who need it most.”

Recruitment and training for volunteers will begin in August. Tax filing services will be available early next year with locations to be determined.
