Truth, Justice and the American Way?
The truth in America is that, all too often, justice is only available to those who can afford it.

Princeton Justice Initiative offers free civil legal aid aimed at keeping good people in Central New Jersey from spiraling into poverty. If you are an attorney seeking pro bono hours, you can be their Superhero.

Princeton Justice Initiative is certified as a pro bono provider by the State of New Jersey. A few hours of your time—online, over the phone or at one of our nearby ShareFairs—will mean the world to good people in Mercer and Somerset counties who are one bad break away from the pull of poverty. The civil legal aid you provide not only helps clients understand their rights, it’s a priceless first step toward effective self-advocacy and a blow to systematic economic injustice.

The little things you do make a BIG difference.
