The Pro Bono Legal Services Program provides free legal advice and representation to low-income San Francisco residents facing legal is-sues including eviction, consumer debt, child custody and child sup-port, divorce, domestic violence, and business law matters affecting nonprofits that serve low-income communities. JDC recruits, trains and supports hundreds of volunteers annually to provide these services. Our volunteers are partners and associates at law firms of all sizes, attorneys from in-house legal departments of major corporations and government offices, solo attorneys, and law school students.
PROGRAMS
PRO BONO LEGAL SERVICES
HOMELESS ADVOCACY PROJECT The Homeless Advocacy Project (HAP) provides free legal and relat-ed social services to individuals and families who are homeless or at serious risk of becoming homeless. HAP prioritizes clients with mental health disabilities. HAP excels at helping people address immediate legal crises that affect their ability to keep their housing or prevent them from obtaining stable housing, but our work does not stop there. HAP is a pioneer in providing holistic legal services. HAP identifies all aspects of an individual or family’s life that have led to the crisis, and then provides social services to stabilize their lives. The most common legal issues addressed at HAP are federal disability benefits advocacy, eviction defense, and immigration documentation.

PROGRAMS
More than 80 law students have received scholarships, totaling over $1,500,000 in support.
JDC’s Diversity Educational Programs are provided in partnership with The Bar Association of San Francisco to increase the diversity of the legal profession. The programs are designed to inspire minority students to pursue a career in law by removing barriers to college and law school attendance. Program outcomes for high school students include: more than doubling the likelihood participating high school seniors will attend four year colleges; paid summer internship opportunities in law firms, legal departments, and government offices; offering students hands-on courtroom experience; tutoring, academic and college readiness counseling, and college tours. Program outcomes for undergraduates include: access to information and resources about the legal profession, knowledge about how to increase the likelihood of being admitted to law school, and scholarships and discounts for LSAT prep courses. For minority law school students, JDC offers three-year scholarships to Bay Area law schools as well as mentoring and networking opportunities. More than 80 students have received scholarships, totaling over $1,500,000 in support. BASF further extends the reach of this program by providing support and networking to minority attorneys with an emphasis on mentoring those who aspire to become members of the judiciary.

The Justice & Diversity Center launched in March 2013 as the culmination of the merger of the Volunteer Legal Services Program (VLSP) and The Bar Association of San Francisco Foundation in 2012. VLSP was founded in 1977 to provide low-income people with access to free legal advice and representation by leveraging the pro bono services of attorneys practicing in San Francisco. The BASF Foundation housed Diversity Educational Programs which support San Francisco’s underserved youth and minority college students aspiring to attend law school.

Donors to the Brosnahan Society make extraordinary, long-term commitments to the Justice & Diversity Center. Each has made a multi-year pledge of support. Their gifts provide a sustainable source of oper-ating revenue for JDC’s programs, and exemplify the generosity of these leaders in the legal community.
“I donate to JDC because the problems of the unrepresented are acute. Unless they are represented, they must face the loss of their house, their child, their property, their rights without counsel.”

CY PR
ES
Since 1986, the cy pres doctrine, which originally applied to wills and trusts, has benefitted untold charitable organizations because the California Supreme Court endorsed the use of the doctrine in class action settlements. When funds remain after class members have been given a full opportunity to make a claim, the remaining funds can be distributed to a nonprofit organization.
If you would like further information about how cy pres funds are used by JDC, or how to designate JDC as the recipient of a cy pres award, please contact JDC Development Director Troy Arnold at 415-782-8917, or [email protected].
