Mission
The Virginia Poverty Law Center (VPLC) provides leadership, support, training, public education, and advocacy to address the civil legal needs of Virginia’s low-income population. Our legal staff specializes in areas of law that affect low-income Virginians. Through training and communications, we educate others about the legal rights of the poor and identify systemic problems and issues. We work collaboratively with Virginia’s legal aid community, other organizations and stakeholders to represent the interests of low-income Virginians in the courts, executive agencies, and legislative bodies.
