Mosaic Family Services, Inc. recently received a $20,000 grant for the Multicultural Legal Services Program from the Texas Bar Foundation. This generous grant will provide a part-time Pro Bono Program Coordinator for the program. The Coordinator will establish and maintain relationships with private attorneys in the community, who will provide pro bono services for those clients who our program is unable to immediately serve due to a waiting list. Mosaic will be able to serve many additional victims and their families with a strong Pro Bono attorney program.
Since its inception in 1965, the Texas Bar Foundation has awarded more than $9 million in grants to law-related programs. Supported by members of the State Bar of Texas, the Texas Bar Foundation is the nation’s largest charitably-funded bar foundation.
Mosaic Family Services Multicultural Legal Services Program employs three full-time attorneys who specialize in immigration and family law. Staff attorneys assist clients with all aspects of their immigration experience, as well as provide legal support for divorce, child-custody, protective orders, and other important family law issues as they pertain to domestic violence.
