About
Founded 1905
At Legal Aid, we strive to champion justice, fairness, and the chance for advancement among individuals with limited financial means through dedicated legal advocacy and efforts geared towards meaningful change in our systems. Our vision is rooted in the hope that Northeast Ohio will be a region where every person can enjoy respect and equity, liberated from poverty and injustice. Harnessing legal expertise, we work to enhance safety and well-being, encourage educational success along with economic stability, ensure fair housing options are available for everyone, and promote transparency within government as well as judicial processes. By addressing critical challenges faced by those with low incomes directly—and dismantling barriers that hinder their potential—we empower people to build more secure lives. This empowerment cultivates stronger community involvement that ultimately contributes to a lively society overall.
