Get free legal help.

We are 3 non-profits that provide legal aid to South Dakotans and members of local Tribal Nations.

Protecting Rights. Building a Better Future.

The legal system can be overwhelming — especially without legal support.

That’s why our three organizations exist.

We’re here to guide you, help you understand your rights, and connect you to the resources you need to move forward with confidence.

Help us promote equal access to justice.

When life gets tough, it’s often the people who are already struggling that get hit the hardest.

Many South Dakotans and members of local Tribal Nations are reaching out right now for legal aid. We rely on the support of community members, including time donated by local attorneys.

Join us in our mission to bring equal access to justice for everyone in our area.

Need to refer someone else to get help?
