In partnership with Boys & Girls Club, the Cleveland Metropolitan School District, the Cleveland Metropolitan Bar Association and P16, Legal Aid begins this week monthly clinics focused on families in need.

Legal Aid’s Access to Education Program is designed to increase student success by removing barriers to education through civil legal aid.

Legal Aid will serve students facing barriers to education caused by instability at home, with a focus on children whose families face problems impacting housing, safety and economic security. Instability in these areas disrupts learning, contributes to transience, increases absenteeism, and leads to student disengagement.
