Washington Legal Clinic for the Homeless -
Washington, DC, MI
The Washington Legal Clinic for the Homeless works to end the unnecessary suffering caused by poverty and advocates for justice for people who are homeless or at-risk of becoming homeless in Washington, DC.
We envision a just and inclusive community.
Since our founding in 1986, the Legal Clinic has become a principal force in protecting the rights of homeless and other low-income people here in the District of Columbia through a unique combination of direct representation, class action litigation, policy and budget advocacy, and community outreach and organizing.

Washington Legal Clinic for the Homeless commented on the article |Reading about these experiences from a first-person perspective really brings the issues of homelessness and the cycle of poverty into a very personal light. It is very important the people understand that there are underlying, root causes of homelessness that our society does not encourage us to understand. State social service systems are massively flawed and overwhelmed, which makes it the responsibility of everyone to care for their community members and neighbors.
