Texas RioGrande Legal Aid, formerly Texas Rural Legal Aid (TRLA), is a nonprofit agency that specializes in providing free civil legal services to the poor in a 68-county service area. It also operates a migrant farmworker legal assistance program in six southern states and a public defender program in southern rural counties of Texas. Established in 1970, TRLA is the largest legal aid provider in Texas and the second largest in the United States.[1]
TRLA's mission is to promote the dignity, self sufficiency, safety, and stability of low income Texans by providing high quality civil legal assistance and related educational services.
Every year the organization provides approximately 23,000 clients with legal services. To be eligible, a client must be at or below 200% of federal poverty guidelines depending on the circumstances of the client.
TRLA is funded by grants and individual donations. One of the organization's largest funders is the Legal Services Corporation.
