SLS empowers low-income people in Connecticut to obtain justice by providing tools to address their civil legal needs.
At Statewide Legal Services we believe knowledge is power. We are a legal aid advice and referral center helping low-income people solve their legal problems. We believe that everyone should have access to justice.
