A Note About Meeting This Moment

After a significant cut in federal funding, CCSLS was forced to make difficult budget decisions, including the loss of one full-time staff attorney. We cannot afford to lose another. To protect vital services, CCSLS has launched our Fund an Attorney Campaign with a goal of raising $100,000. This campaign will culminate at our special event fundraiser on Sept 3rd. 

Together, we’ll raise critical funds to retain an Attorney to protect the rights and dignity of low-income seniors across our community—ensuring they remain housed, safe, and free from abuse or financial harm.
