LACY of Santa Clara County

LACY, Legal Advocates for Children and Youth, is a dedicated group of attorneys, social workers and volunteers. They protect the legal rights of children and youth in the foster care system, empowering them to lead healthy and productive lives. They listen to, advise, and are the voice of those who often do not have a voice.

Foster children have often been the victims of child abuse, neglect, parental abandonment, education discrimination and identity theft. LACY helps them navigate what is often an overwhelming situation.

LACY has provided free legal representation and advocacy to approximately 3,860 children and youth in Silicon Valley over the last year. With our contribution, we hope to enable LACY to continue to fund their legal program into the future.
