We provide pro bono transactional business law representation, offer legal workshops and presentations on legal issues for small businesses, and collaborate with strategic partners to resolve complex and consistent community challenges.
The Community Advocacy Project is part of the greater Equitable Development Initiative within Lone Star Legal Aid. Place matters and where a person lives is one of the greatest determinants of their ability to flourish and succeed. The Equitable Development Initiative’s goal is to provide legal assistance to foster community revitalization in low-income neighborhoods by fighting systemic discrimination and degradation, and by helping residents create safe, decent and equitable living spaces. The Civil Rights Act and government agency rules and regulations are among the advocacy tools EDI uses to fight the inequities in the communities we serve.
