BERLIN — New Hampshire Legal Assistance has received $300,000 from the Neil and Louise Tillotson Fund of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation to support NHLA’s Berlin office and its commitment to provide vital civil legal aid to low-income and older residents in the North Country. This will help to protect domestic violence victims, prevent illegal evictions, and remove barriers to public benefits.
Since NHLA first began offering free legal services in 1971, there has been a gap between the legal needs of low-income Granite Staters and the legal services available to them. This unmet need is even greater in the North Country. Thanks in large part to the Tillotson Fund, NHLA has the resources to support two legal advocates in its Berlin office. In 2019, NHLA served over 330 low-income and older North Country residents.
