Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
FAMILYWHEN FAMILIES STRUGGLE WITH THEIR INTERNAL DYNAMICS, IT CAN AFFECT STABILITY IN THE REST OF THEIR LIVES - FROM WHERE THEY LIVE, TO WHOM THEIR CHILDREN LIVE WITH, TO HOW MUCH THEY'RE ABLE TO FOCUS ON THEIR JOBS AND MAINTAIN AN INCOME. LEGAL AID ADVOCATES WORK WITH COUPLES WHO HAVE DECIDED THAT WHAT'S BEST FOR THEM IS A CLEAN BREAK AND A FRESH START, AND WITH VICTIMS OF DOMESTIC ABUSE WHO NEED TO PERMANENTLY SEPARATE FROM THEIR ABUSER. BY HELPING RESOLVE THESE INTERPERSONAL CONFLICTS WITH LEGAL SOLUTIONS, LEGAL AID RELEASES THE STRESS THEY FEEL IN THEIR HOME LIFE AND ALLOWS THEM TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THEIR LIVES AND FOCUS ON BEING HEALTHY, PRODUCTIVE, AND MEANINGFUL MEMBERS OF THEIR COMMUNITY.
HOUSINGFEW THINGS ROCK THE FOUNDATION OF SOMEONE'S LIFE LIKE NOT HAVING A SAFE, SECURE, AND STABLE HOME. NOT HAVING A HOME AFFECTS EVERY ASPECT OF THEIR LIFE - FROM THEIR EMOTIONAL AND MENTAL HEALTH, TO CONSISTENCY IN THEIR CHILD'S EDUCATION, TO WHETHER THEY HAVE THE TRANSPORTATION NEEDED TO MAKE IT TO THEIR JOBS. MANY OF LOW-INCOME FAMILIES IN OUR COMMUNITIES STRUGGLE WITH THESE ISSUES, AND WHEN LEGAL AID HELPS RESOLVE THEM, THE RESULT IS TRANSFORMATIVE. ADULTS STABILIZE, CHILDREN LEARN, AND FAMILIES GROW AND PROSPER. BEYOND THE INDIVIDUAL OR FAMILY, THE NEIGHBORHOOD SEES LESS TRANSIENCY, BLIGHT IS REDUCED, AND HISTORICALLY DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES CAN BEGIN TO REJUVENATE.
CONSUMERDEBT CAN OVERWHELM SOMEONE'S LIFE, ESPECIALLY WHEN THAT PERSON IS IMPOVERISHED. LEGAL AID IS COMMITTED TO GIVING CLIENTS A FRESH START THROUGH BANKRUPTCY, TAX DEBT RELIEF, AND MORE. ADVOCATES HELP CLIENTS THROUGH THE PROCESS TO RELIEVE DEBT, REDUCE CREDITOR HARASSMENT, SAVE IMPORTANT ASSETS LIKE THEIR HOMES, AND REVERSE SHUT-OFFS OF NECESSARY THINGS LIKE UTILITIES. THIS ALLOWS INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES TO BE FINANCIALLY WELL, REDUCING STRESS, AND HELPING THEM GET BACK TO BEING CONTRIBUTING CONSUMERS IN THE COMMUNITY.
