Since 1967, our programs in Brooklyn have sought equal justice for low-income people in by providing a broad range of legal advocacy and information. In pursuing this goal, our offices work with individual clients and client groups to identify and address their legal needs, to help empower low-income people to identify and defeat the causes and effects of poverty in their communities, to focus on matters that will have the greatest impact for low-income people and to work in partnership with the private bar and with other agencies and organizations serving low-income people.
