Justice for Those Who Served
Every day, veterans across the country face legal challenges that threaten their health, housing, and financial security. Now, as sweeping cuts and proposed rollbacks threaten to gut the Veterans Administration, access to justice is more urgent than ever.
Equal Justice America is advancing legal support for veterans — by placing dedicated attorneys and law students where they’re needed most. From helping veterans access benefits and avoid eviction to navigating complex health care systems, EJA is ensuring those who served aren’t left to fight alone. With your support, we can expand this work across the country and reach more veterans who urgently need legal help.
