JUSTICE FOR ALL

The Illinois Equal Justice Foundation funds civil legal aid programs across
the state, ensuring that all residents have equal access to the justice system.

These programs build stronger communities and a stronger Illinois.

IEJF Awards More than $1.6M in Eviction Help Illinois Grants

Eviction Notice

With funding from the Illinois Department of Human Services, the Illinois Equal Justice Foundation has awarded more than $1.6M in Eviction Help Illinois grants to 16 nonprofit organizations.  These grants will fund legal information, advice, representation and mediation services for Illinoisans impacted by eviction due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The pandemic has placed millions of renters under the threat of eviction, with communities of color facing the greatest risk.  As part of a statewide response, the IDHS is funding several initiatives to mitigate the looming eviction crisis.  Legal assistance and mediation services will be a critical part of this statewide response to protect renters and keep people in their homes.
