Currently Available Positions
Since 1967, Charlotte Center for Legal Advocacy (Advocacy Center) has provided comprehensive civil legal services for the Charlotte region’s low-income residents. The Advocacy Center advances its mission to pursue justice for a diverse community of those in need through a variety of advocacy strategies, including individual advice and representation, community education and outreach, representation of groups, self-help remedies, collaboration with other agencies, community economic development, legislative and administrative advocacy, and impact litigation.
Over 300,000 Mecklenburg County residents are eligible for services and in need of legal assistance, but unable to afford private lawyers. Through its approximately $6 million annual budget and highly experienced 70-person staff, the Advocacy Center served over 6,000 neighbors facing a crisis of safety, security, and stability, earning more than $11 million in benefits in the last year. The Advocacy Center is able to accomplish its mission because it does not receive any funding from the federal Legal Services Corporation, allowing it to provide extensive services that LSC-funded organizations cannot provide, including class action litigation, legislative and administrative advocacy, and assisting immigrants without regard to immigration status.
