For half a century, we have stood with our communities, demonstrating the the need and belief that everyone, regardless of income, deserves access to legal advice and representation. Formed in 1974, we’ve grown and evolved over 50 years, with a strong commitment to serving the six boroughs with dedication.
Despite the challenges of the last decade, particularly in regard to changes in legislation which have made it increasingly difficult for those on low incomes to access legal support, we’ve remained resolute in our mission. You can read our 2022-23 Impact Report here.
Join us in commemorating 50 years of impact and empowerment. Your support, whether through donations, volunteering, or spreading awareness, is crucial in ensuring that our mission continues to thrive for the next 50 years and beyond.
We ask that you contribute to our 50th year specific donation link here.
We extend our deepest gratitude to our supporters, volunteers, funders, and sponsors, for standing with us in our quest for a more just and equitable society. You have been an integral part of helping local people access justice and build our communities to thrive in the face of challenges.
