Funders

Funding and Support

LASP is funded with a combination of public and private grants and donations. This includes federal funding from the Legal Services Corp., state money from the Pennsylvania Legal Aid Network (PLAN), the Interest on Lawyers Trust Account (IOLTA) program, and PA Department of Human Services, monies from United Way organizations, contributions from private attorneys and bar associations in all four counties, contracts with area agencies on aging and money from private foundations in the region. 

In addition, pro bono programs in all four counties are avenues through which private attorneys willing to donate their time advise and represent low-income clients, victims of domestic abuse and the elderly. For more information on volunteering with LASP, please visit lasp.org/pro-bono.
