What is in this for volunteer tax preparers?

After training, TAP volunteers become tax preparers certified by the Internal Revenue Service.  Lawyers and paralegals earn pro bono credit (includes training hours plus tax preparation session hours.)  Most important, you can be part of keeping a family from losing their home, providing food and clothing for children or helping a family move toward financial independence.
