Community Fest Brings Residents Together for a Day of Empowerment and Unity

Attendees visit resource booths to learn more about Public Counsel’s legal services.

Public Counsel is immensely grateful to everyone who participated in our inaugural Community Fest this past weekend. Our attendees’ enthusiasm and engagement helped make the event a resounding success! 

It was inspiring to see our community come together to connect, learn, and access vital legal resources, all while enjoying music, food, and free raffles and prizes. From the enlightening workshops on homeowner rights and bankruptcy to discussions about special education and workplace rights, our participants found the sessions informative and empowering.

A special thanks to our dedicated staff and volunteers whose tireless efforts made this day possible. Stay tuned for more events and updates from Public Counsel as we continue to serve and support our community. Together, we are making a difference!
