MA Legal Aid Funders Network Meeting: Promoting Justice Through Public Policy Change
Foundations are partnering with civil legal aid to bring critically needed changes to public policy that directly affects people experiencing barriers and low wages. Join us for a conversation about how philanthropy can promote justice through public policy change. Hear directly from legal service providers and funders about current initiatives. The session will be of interest to funders across the state looking to increase justice through changing laws and public policies affecting individuals who encounter systemic barriers, in collaboration with civil legal aid organizations.
