Legal Services Programs

The Justice & Diversity Center provides free legal help, and related social services to low-income and homeless San Francisco residents, as well as nonprofit organizations that serve low-income communities. Volunteer attorneys enable us to do a large part of this work and reach more clients than JDC could through staff attorneys alone. Learn more about our legal services programs below.
