Step Up to Justice is an award winning, full-service, free civil legal center for low-income individuals and families in Pima County, powered by the talents of volunteer attorneys. Through careful financial stewardship and technology designed to bring civil legal services to clients where and when they need them, Step Up to Justice builds connections between clients, attorneys and community partners. Step Up to Justice is ground-breaking, forward-thinking and committed to advancing efforts to secure equal access to justice for all.
200,000 Pima County residents live in poverty. 140,000 of them have at least one civil legal need per year.
Prior to the launch of Step Up To Justice, only 4% of the need was being met, and less than 20% of the available volunteers were being utilized.
Since 2017, Step Up To Justice has expanded on existing resources, and increased services in the community by 25%, ensuring that thousands more low-income Pima County residents have access to pro bono legal services.
