MEETING - Legal Aid Society of San Mateo County

Since the last meeting with the school district, my child
has improved at school and in the home. Working with
Legal Aid helped me become familiar with the independent
education process and how I can improve my son’s
education. I now feel comfortable speaking to my child’s
teacher about his education.

I want to thank you for helping me get my life
back. I have been suffering while being sick
and trying to stay afloat on a sinking ship.
Now I can concentrate on my health without
worrying about my children going without.

It seems like a longer time than a year and half since I got myself
caught in this mess. I am a senior on a fixed-income of SSI Disability
and Social Security and don’t like being harrassed and threatened
that my Social Security will be taken away. Thank you so much for
helping me and taking care of this situation.

We faced homelessness, felt hopelessness
and segregated. Not only did you provide us
with support and advice, you gave us a restored
sense of dignity and the ability to trust.

When I was 12 years old, pregnant, and did not speak
any English, the Legal Aid attorney was always there
to help and assist me. I have always felt that she
understands the struggles I face as a teen parent
and knows how to help me.
