About
Who we are
Legal Aid for Survivors of Sexual Assault (LASSA) is a statewide, collaborative network of legal service organizations working to ensure survivors have access to critical civil legal services throughout Texas. The network provides free legal education, advice, representation, and other resources.
Since the LASSA program’s inception in October 2015, the network of legal aid providers has handled thousands of cases involving survivors of sexual assault.
How we’re sustained
LASSA is funded by the Texas Access to Justice Foundation and is comprised of the following legal aid organizations: Catholic Charities of Dallas, Equal Justice Center, Legal Aid of NorthWest Texas, Lone Star Legal Aid, St. Frances Cabrini Center for Immigration Legal Assistance, Tahirih, Texas Advocacy Project, Texas Legal Services Center, and Texas RioGrande Legal Aid.
