Who We Are
The mission of Mobilization for Justice (formerly MFY Legal Services) is to achieve social justice, prioritizing the needs of people who are low-income, disenfranchised or have disabilities.
The Manhattan Seniors Project provides advice, counsel, and representation in court on a wide range of issues, prioritizing those seniors at risk of losing their housing and independence. MFJ also helps seniors avoid the pitfalls that prevent them from aging in place in their own apartments by providing community legal education.
