Annual Campaign

In Massachusetts, civil legal aid is funded in part by the state government. The Equal Justice Coalition works with bar associations, law firms, and law schools throughout the year to protect this funding so that low-income individuals and families facing civil (non-criminal) legal issues have access to attorneys who can help them.
