Northeast Legal Aid will do all it can to oppose such iniquitous behavior. Please contact Northeast Legal Aid if you believe you are a victim of discrimination or other injustice.

  Racial Injustice Statement

In these difficult times, marked by the tragic death of George Floyd, Northeast Legal Aid, and its affiliate Northeast Justice Center, express their heartfelt concern for all those throughout our community and elsewhere in the United States, who endure racial injustice and discrimination or are deprived of equal opportunity or other fundamental rights.

We pledge to turn the current anguish suffered by so many into a recommitment to our principal goals — equal justice for all under law and a fair opportunity for all to enjoy the blessings of liberty.

We welcome all our clients, community partners and supporters to join with to steadfastly pursue these goals. Thank you.
