Support the clinic
Free for families because others give
The clinic doesn’t charge families who qualify, so its lawyers, its guides and the phone line are paid for by grants and gifts. A small monthly gift covers the hours a lawyer spends reading one family’s file.
Giving isn’t the only way in. Parents who’ve been through this, retired teachers and lawyers with a spare week each year all make the clinic work.
Gifts pay for lawyers’ time, not for glossy extras
Volunteers are trained before they sit with a family
Referrals bring in the parents who most need us

Give
Once or every month. Ask us how, and what a gift covers.
Volunteer
Sit with a parent at a meeting. We train you, and a lawyer is a call away.
Take a case
Lawyers can take one family’s case a year, with our guides behind them.
Spread the word
Hand a guide to a parent, a school social worker or a pastor.
