Legal Services Initiative

A program that addresses barriers within the legal process that delay permanency. LSI places paralegals in agency offices to complete legal work, identify and resolve legal barriers and to bridge the gap between the legal community and child welfare system.  https://dev.swantoolkit.org/toolkit/09-lsi-legal-services
