Legal Aid of Nebraska

Omaha Community Foundation has awarded us a generous grant for our 2026 Name Change Clinic! 💙

Legal Aid of Nebraska will partner with Omaha ForUs and local volunteer attorneys to host a free legal clinic for name changes, which can improve safety, privacy, and overall well-being for people needing a fresh start. Our clinics help people move into a new phase of their lives with the support and confidence they deserve.

We are grateful for the support of the Omaha Community Foundation and are very proud to partner with them to serve our community!

Thank you United Way of Lincoln and Lancaster County, sending The Warm Cookie was a very sweet way to celebrate our partnership! Your support has been instrumental in providing free legal assistance to the community and we are proud to work with you! 🍪 🩵

Thanks to Lincoln Community Foundation and everyone who supported us through . You more than TRIPLED our goal!

We are inspired by your tremendous generosity and the ways you care for the community!

Financial circumstances should not be a barrier to fairness and justice. ⚖ No one should lose their home, their healthcare, or their safety, because they cannot afford a lawyer.

Legal Aid of Nebraska is delivering on that promise every day, showing up for our low-income friends and neighbors when they have nowhere else to turn.

More than 260,000 Nebraskans qualify for free civil legal assistance. Today, you can help us do more for those who need an advocate in their corner.

Thanks to our generous Equal Justice Partners, every donation in May will be matched, up to $15,000!

Together, we can make a huge impact. Raising $30,000 would meet critical needs in our community, for example:

* Support 300 more Nebraskans with legal advice and guidance
* Assist 117 more people with Medicare/Medicaid issues
* Help 101 more survivors of domestic violence
* Enable 58 more families to maintain housing

With every gift, we are able to offer support, guidance, and a better future – defending rights, confronting injustice, restoring hope, and opening doors to opportunity.
