Texas Disaster Legal Help Podcast
This podcast is part of a coordinated project between Lone Star Legal Aid, Legal Aid of NorthWest Texas, and Texas RioGrande Legal Aid aimed at improving access to justice for those affected by disasters. Our project allows both disaster survivors and pro bono attorneys to access critical resources in one place while at the same time making it easier to connect disaster survivors needing legal help with volunteer attorneys willing to provide it. This podcast will provide critical education for volunteers so that they are ready to help if and when the next disaster strikes. You'll hear from volunteer attorneys and get a real sense of what it is like to provide this kind of service. Stay tuned and be sure to check out our website at texasdisasterlegalhelp.org!

Under-investment in building and maintaining drains can trigger bigger disasters. Learn more with our guest speakers Ana Laurel and Carey Buxton from Texas RioGrande Legal Aid.
