Community Education

Community legal education is a core part of our mission. SLLS offers “Know Your Rights” workshops, staffs outreach fairs, and participates in other community events to ensure that people have the knowledge they need to protect their legal rights. “Know Your Rights” sessions educate seniors, opportunity youth, domestic violence survivors, and the community at large about topics like:

  • Landlord-Tenant Tenant’s Rights
  • Tax Issues for Small Business Owners
  • Family Law Matters
  • Wills and Successions
  • How to Avoid Predatory Lending
  • Legal Protections for Domestic Violence Survivors
  • Healthcare Access Issues
  • Expungements and Employment Rights

Would you like to host a “Know Your Rights” Workshop for your neighborhood or community organization?
