When low-income domestic violence victims in Central Ohio need legal help, they have few places to turn. Through Coalition funding and grants from Franklin County, the Capital University Law School launched its Family Advocacy Clinic in October 2000 to provide free legal services to qualifying victims. Since its inception, clinic attorneys have helped over 8,000 victims with protection orders and divorce proceedings.
