Legal Aid Services of Oregon

Our eight regional offices serve the general low-income population and two specialized statewide programs serve farmworkers and provide representation on Native American issues. Because we have the resources to serve only a small percentage of the legal needs of our clients, our regional offices and statewide programs regularly engage in a priority-setting process where they survey low-income clients and groups, community partners, attorneys and judges to determine the most pressing legal need in their communities. The highest-priority legal needs include family law issues relating to domestic violence; access to safe, affordable housing; access to health care; protection of income; and access to social safety-net programs such as those for the elderly and people with disabilities.
