CASLS works closely with community organizations, government agencies, other legal advisory organizations and various service providers to better meet the needs of low-income clients in our service space. We provide training on housing and benefits issues to other groups, work closely with community organizations seeking policy change, and raise funds for homelessness prevention. The following organizations may provide immigration law services through BIA-accredited lawyers or agents: In August 1996, CASLS merged with Greater Boston Legal Services, Inc. (GBLS) due to significant federal funding for legal services and severe restrictions on advocacy methods and who can be served. This merger redesigned our legal services system to meet these new conditions and helped us maximize the level and forms of legal aid for low-income individuals in our service sector. For over 40 years, Cambridge and Somerville Legal Services (CASLS) has provided free legal assistance to low-income families and individuals residing in Cambridge, Somerville, Arlington, Belmont, Woburn and Winchester. The Citizenship Works directory will help you find a non-profit organization in your area that is qualified to help you with your case.
