Please join CLI this Friday for their annual fundraiser, The Justice Jam! This year’s theme: Unity is Resistance. Every contribution helps Community Lawyers continue providing legal information, consultations, clinics, and advocacy to individuals and families throughout Compton, South Los Angeles, and Southeast Los Angeles County. Your support helps someone understand their rights, navigate the legal system, and access justice when they may not otherwise be able to afford it.

The event itself takes place this Friday, from 6pm-9pm.

We’re thrilled to announce the opening of our office’s Substack! Our Substack will continue the work that we’ve been doing through our blog, telling our client’s stories and disseminating important information on a larger platform.

It will also function as an archive of our previously published articles, such as this piece titled “How Does A Child End Up In Handcuffs”, which chronicles how, due to a spiral of malpractice and negligence, an 8 year old girl had the police called on her by her caretakers.

The link to our substack is in our Instagram bio, and here: https://hirjichaurodriguez.substack.com

Published by the American Bar Association in 2018, this article by our managing partner Rosa Hirji is a biting treatise on the fight against the school-to-prison pipeline and zero-tolerance policies in schools, the harmful effects of privatization in education, and the intersectional dimensions of both issues. Now, amidst the second Trump administration’s continued attacks on the educational rights of all students, particularly students with disabilities, Rosa’s observations are more important than ever.

We recently published a short blog discussing the recent 9th circuit ruling which held that emotional distress damages are no longer available under Title II of the ADA.

This blog explores the background of the issue and explains that that while this development is disappointing blow, it may not be devastating one.
