The letter, addressed to House and Senate appropriators, highlights the critical role of the LSC in supporting hundreds of thousands of cases related to domestic violence, family, and child safety, housing security, and veterans. The agency's funding generates an average return of $7 for every $1 spent on legal aid, according to the letter [1].
The 2026 budget appendix requests $21 million for an “orderly closeout” of the LSC, which had requested $2.1 billion for fiscal 2026. The state chief justices warn that the consequences for citizens would be “disastrous,” potentially slowing court procedures and causing a backlog of other cases.
The Mount Arlington Library will host the Navigating Hope van on June 12, 2025, from 12:00 PM to 04:00 PM, to assist individuals with SNAP, Medicaid, TANF, and other programs, as well as connect them to services for health and wellness, domestic violence, aging, WIC, and EITC. This event aims to help individuals access necessary resources and support.
