Their counsel gave me the confidence to ask our board to step forward despite the risk of retaliation. By helping us successfully secure relief, the Lawyers’ Committee has protected millions of dollars in federal funding and preserved essential services for Rhode Island’s most vulnerable residents.

Join Our Network
The Lawyers' Committee for Rhode Island offers you a way to apply your legal expertise to work affecting nonprofits, communities, and public institutions across Rhode Island.
You may advise a nonprofit facing a funding disruption, support a legal action as it develops, or contribute to a training tied to a specific need. Your level of involvement is based on your experience and availability.
You would be working alongside other attorneys, with coordination from LCRI and access to national legal partners when needed.
