Hey Legal Aid Providers! Fill out our Disaster Resilience Program’s Needs Assessment

/ Updates

Equal Justice Works is currently conducting its annual needs assessment for the Disaster Resilience Program to understand the legal needs of low-income communities affected by or at risk of disasters. Click here to complete the survey for your organization by November 29. 

This assessment aims to collect information from legal aid providers across the country on their current need and capacity to provide disaster legal assistance. Answers from this survey will be used to understand whether and how Equal Justice Works may help support the response of local service providers through its Disaster Resilience Program. Once the assessment is closed, Equal Justice Works will analyze the data and determine what program strategy will be most effective and responsive to the needs identified. 

As we continue to expand this program and mobilize Fellows across the country, your assistance in this survey could help bring Fellows to your area! 

Please take a few minutes to complete the needs assessment here on behalf of your organization. The survey will close on November 29, 2024. Only one assessment per office please. We encourage you to forward this survey to colleagues outside of your organization and who may be interested in hosting Equal Justice Works Fellows in the future and who can provide additional insight for our consideration.
