About this organization
Mission
To raise and distribute funds for provision of legal services for low-income and disadvantaged groups and for legal education and pro bono services in the Silicon Valley.
About
Grants given to eight legal service providers enabled them to serve over 40,000 low-income people in 2015 in partnership with the Santa Clara County Bar Association. SVCLS directly benefits the poorest and most disadvantaged members of our community who need civil legal help in such critical needs areas as fair housing, access to health care, prevention of domestic violence and prevention of elder abuse. The Silicon Valley Campaign for Legal Services is a recipient of the American Bar Association's prestigious Harrison Tweed Award for leadership in developing support for the provision of free legal services to the poor.
