The Northern Kentucky Legal Aid Society, established in 1967, merged with Northeast Kentucky Legal Services in 1997 to serve 4 urban and 19 rural counties with offices in Covington, Morehead and Ashland.
In 2002, the organisation merged with Kentucky Legal Services Headquarters in Lexington to become Legal Aid of the Bluegrass serving 33 counties.
Their mission is to solve the main problems of people on low incomes and other vulnerable people by providing high quality legal assistance through direct representation, education, counselling, advocacy and coordination with other community resources.
They are for low-income families with children, seniors, veterans, and those needing access to health care.
Their clients are frail elderly nursing home residents, those suffering abuse at the hands of their loved ones, those with barriers to employment, those who are economically exploited, and those who lack the basic necessities of life.
Hours:
Monday - Friday: 8:30 a.m.
