How Can I Help?

In the United States, low-income people are not guaranteed lawyers in civil cases—for example, divorce or custody cases involving domestic violence, obtaining a protection order, housing, or access to Medicare and/or Medicaid for seniors and people with disabilities.

Idaho Legal Aid Services, Inc. is Idaho’s largest pro-bono law office providing free civil legal services to low-income individuals and families throughout Idaho.

The long-term success of our program depends on increased support from the Idaho community at large. There are a couple of ways you can help:

Contact Your Legislature:

Support increased public funding for legal services providers. Contact your U.S. Senator or  Representative and let them know that you support access to justice for the poor and expanded funding for the legal services organizations in Idaho. Click here to find contact information for your Senator or Representative.

Provide a Gift:
