What states have implemented a voluntary statewide certification program for paralegals?

No U.S. state currently has a mandatory statewide certification program for paralegals. While several states have *voluntary* certification programs, it's important to understand that these certifications don't grant the same legal authority or licensure as a lawyer's license. They simply indicate a certain level of training and competence.

Therefore, the answer is none – no state has a mandatory program, and while several offer voluntary options, there isn't a readily available, consistently updated list of which states specifically have them. To find out about voluntary programs, you'd need to research the bar association or relevant regulatory body in individual states of interest.
