OneJustice is an innovative and award-winning nonprofit that brings life-changing legal help to those in need, with the goal of transforming the California civil legal aid system. OneJustice works to build the capacity of all components of California's civil legal aid system to meet the needs of local communities and to ensure the availability of services for all. The Rural Justice VISTA project will play a crucial role in helping design and implement virtual and in-person legal clinics that expand the reach of life-changing legal services for underserved and isolated communities around the state. The VISTA will be in charge of developing the infrastructure for these clinics at each partner organization and creating community awareness through outreach events.
