Durham Legal Aid of NC staff had an incredible day on a civil rights walking tour of Durham, guided by Preservation Durham. Afterwards, we unleashed our competitive sides with games at Boxcar Bar + Arcade! We're so excited to have some amazing interns with us this summer and loved celebrating with them. #LegalAidNC #Durham #SummerInterns #TeamOuting

Today, Legal Aid of North Carolina is honored to welcome nine distinguished visitors invited under the U.S. Department of State’s International Visitor Leadership Program!

We are excited to engage with these leaders, supported by a fantastic team of interpreters ensuring seamless communication in Spanish, Arabic, and Bengali. Welcome, and we look forward to meaningful exchanges and learning together! #GlobalExchange #CombatTrafficking #HumanTrafficking #Collaboration

We ❤️ our pro bono volunteers! Connor Crews, associate in the Raleigh office of McGuireWoods LLP and a volunteer with our Heir Property Pro Bono Project, recently helped one of our clients — a senior citizen and military veteran — untangle his home's "tangled title." Thanks to Connor's dedicated advocacy, our client now has sole ownership of his home — and all the peace of mind that comes with it. "Participating in the Heir Property Pro Bono Project was a great way to be of service to someone who needed assistance, and to learn something at the same time," Connor said. "I was glad to help my client become the sole owner of his property, and I hope I made him feel more comfortable in his own home." Thank you, Connor!
