The firm has also partnered with Project Youth to help provide services to at-risk youth throughout Orange County for over 15 years.  The firm offers employment opportunities for youth identified by the program, primarily in the Hispanic communities of Orange County.  One of the firm’s partners also funds an annual scholarship through this organizational partnership for disadvantaged youth to pursue higher education.  Throughout its history, Robinson Calcagnie, Inc. has wholeheartedly supported the recruitment, retention, and advancement of women and diverse attorneys.
