Legal Aid is funded through the Legal Services Corporation, the Ohio Legal Assistance Foundation, and various private sources. We could not do our work without the generous indiviudal donors in Northeast Ohio. Together, we help low-income people access high quality legal services when they need it regardless of ability to pay, for example, when they are confronted with an issue that would leave them homeless, cause a job loss, or threaten family safety or stability.
