Brooklyn Legal Service Corporation "A", East Brooklyn Office

About this Organization:
Brooklyn Legal Services Corporation A (Brooklyn A) has been the primary provider of civil legal services throughout North and East Brooklyn for 35 years. Our clients are low-income individuals, families and local groups who otherwise would not have access to representation. We provide community-based services that integrate the culture, values and norms of those communities and maximize our effectiveness via close and mutually supportive relationships with neighborhood organizations that share our commitment to social and economic justice. We are also unique in serving as the legal arm of local initiatives to rebuild and revitalize our communities. This work results in the creation of housing, child care and health care facilities, development of schools, nursing homes, senior citizen centers and jobs.
