Through this $750,000 Legal Assistance for Victims (LAV) Grant Program award from the U.S. Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women, Rhode Island Legal Services, Inc. will provide comprehensive civil legal assistance to victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking in Rhode Island.

This 3-year project, running from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2027, aims to increase the availability of critical legal services to aid victims in matters related to family, immigration, employment, housing, and criminal justice proceedings arising from the abuse or violence they have experienced.
