Rural Justice Initiative
The Rural Justice Initiative expands access to legal services for individuals in New York’s rural communities through partnerships and pro bono efforts led by UB School of Law.
The Rural Justice Initiative expands access to legal resources and representation for individuals and families living in New York’s rural communities. Through the University at Buffalo School of Law’s Access to Justice programs and partnerships with statewide pro bono networks, the initiative aims to address the unique barriers rural residents face in navigating the legal system.
By connecting volunteer attorneys, law students, and community organizations, the Rural Justice Initiative seeks to strengthen the delivery of legal services across the state—ensuring that geography is never a barrier to justice.
