The Michigan State Bar Foundation aims to enhance the justice system through leadership and financial support. Since its inception, it has awarded over $210 million in grants, primarily supporting nonprofit civil legal aid to ensure equitable access to justice for all. The Foundation focuses on legal aid for the underserved, educating the public on legal rights and the justice system, and promoting conflict resolution outside the courtroom.
The grant program from the Michigan State Bar Foundation allocates roughly $8 million in recurring annual operating grants to a mixture of seven statewide and five regional nonprofit legal aid organizations. These grants aid in supplying a comprehensive range of civil legal services to low-income households. With the Foundation's backing, grantees work on delivering crucial legal help to families facing immediate challenges and advocate for systemic changes to secure just outcomes. This program underscores the Foundation's commitment to facilitating access to justice for Michigan's low-income populations.
