Creating Client-Centered
State Communities of Justice
Hershey, Pennsylvania
April 25 - 28, 2001

The Creating Client-Centered State Communities of Justice Conference brought together client advocates, legal services practitioners, LSC staff and board members, and other members of the legal services community to address issues of importance to our mutual goal of equal justice for all persons. LSC identified the conference objectives as:

1. To converse openly and frankly with each other about the challenges of functioning as a “client centered” legal services system.
2. To consider the challenges and opportunities that arise in building and maintaining client centered legal services given the many changes that affect legal services programs and their clients in the 21st century.
3. To improve our understanding of how legal services programs can respond more directly to clients’ needs.
4. To identify ways in which clients and client groups can work in partnership with programs.
