Legal Aid Society, a nonprofit civil legal services provider serving 15 Kentucky counties, is urging the public and policymakers to recognize the essential role of federal funding in preserving equal access to justice. For over 100 years, Legal Aid Society has provided free legal assistance to individuals and families who cannot afford an attorney. A significant portion ( nearly 30%) of its current funding comes from the Legal Services Corporation (LSC), a federal grantmaking agency.

Attorney Roy Berwick shares his insights on providing high quality legal service to Veterans at-risk of suicide.

“It has always been a privilege to work at Legal Aid,” said John. “I wake up each day grateful I get to do the work of ensuring fairness in the justice system for those in poverty. I feel honored to have the confidence of our dedicated Board and staff to lead this storied organization.”
