ACCESS TO THE LEGAL SYSTEM

JUSTICE FOR THOSE MOST VULNERABLE

IMPACT FAR BEYOND ONE PERSON

WHAT WE DO

We use the power of the law to obtain positive social change, reform systems and institutions, strike down unjust laws and policies, and hold government accountable to the people. Our mission is to represent individuals with the goal of fixing the underlying problem not only for our clients but also for all other persons who have experienced similar injustices.

  • Get assistance

    SLC provides legal representation in civil legal matters such as education advocacy, disability issues, LGBTQ+ equality, rights of people experiencing homelessness, and other civil rights. We primarily represent low income people.

  • Volunteer

    We welcome pro bono attorneys, law students, and non law students to assist us. Your time and support provides excellent hands on experience and helps create meaningful systemic change.
