Access to Justice

The Access to Justice Project provides assistance and support to persons seeking legal assistance with civil law problems. Members are offered the opportunity for direct experience with the legal system, excellent supervision and a chance to make a critical difference in the lives of poor people and their communities. They will team with dedicated professionals working in one of our seven law offices located in Bath, Elmira, Geneva, Ithaca, Jamestown, Olean and Rochester, New York. They will provide support and facilitate access to services that contribute to the improved economic well-being of poor people, avoid displacement from housing and secure benefits providing subsistence income, health care and food. Members work full-time, Monday-Friday, 9-5, for either a six-month or twelve-month term.
