The Illinois Equal Justice Foundation is excited to announce that grant guidelines and applications are now available for the Illinois Armed Forces Legal Aid Network (IL-AFLAN). This funding is available pursuant to Public Act 99-0281, an amendment to the Access to Justice Act, which calls for a pilot statewide legal assistance hotline and coordinated network of legal support services for active duty military personnel, veterans, and their spouses and dependents. This pilot project is an exciting opportunity to create, deepen, and more fully coordinate legal aid services in Illinois for a deserving population. IEJF encourages you to review the grant guidelines for more information and to contact Zach Zarnow at 312-938-2106 with any questions.
