East Bay Community Law Center (EBCLC) A core value of our society is equal access
to justice. The complex nature of the legal system limits equal access, especially for people in
poverty and those faced with language and cultural barriers. Well-trained legal advocates
should be available to all people, regardless of economic status. To that end, EBCLC provides:
* desperately-needed legal services to the low-income community in the areas of housing,
welfare, HIV & health, homelessness and economic development; and * hands-on clinical
education to law students to make these future lawyers aware of and skilled in addressing the
needs of indigent communities. Address: 2921 Adeline Street, Berkeley CA 94703
