The Agricultural Worker Project (AWP) provides free and confidential civil legal services to agricultural workers in Minnesota and North Dakota with a mission to improve clients’ working and living conditions through legal representation, outreach, and education.
SMRLS' mission is: To provide a full range of high quality legal services to low-income persons and eligible client groups in civil matters, in a respectful manner which enables clients to (1) enforce their legal rights; (2) obtain effective access to the courts, administrative agencies and forums which constitute our system of justice; (3) maintain freedom from hunger, homelessness, sickness and abuse; (4) empower persons and assure equal opportunity, thus, helping people to help themselves and become economically self-reliant, to the extent their individual abilities and circumstances permit.
