Two Million Dollars Worth of Justice
Two $1 million grants provided by the Halle Foundation, the AVON Foundation for Women, and the College of Law at Arizona State University will go towards the establishment of the Diane Halle Center for Family Justice and the NextCare Urgent Care Family Violence Legal Clinic. These two organizations will focus on domestic law issues, with the Diane Halle Center for Family Justice offering legal aid to disadvantaged families and victims of family violence, and with the NextCare Urgent Care Family Violence Clinic offering shelters for victims of family crimes.
These two new organizations will be established by the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law at ASU and will help educate law students of today and tomorrow about family law, with emphasis on child abuse, spousal abuse, protective orders, and more. Not only will they educate current and upcoming generations of lawyers, but will benefit their clients, who are merely helpless victims of family violence.
With these two new organizations, domestic law issues will be taken out of the shadows and thrown into the light, where families will be protected from violence, abuse, and neglect, and where lawyers will learn the importance of serving family clients.
