Legal aid cut in Harrisburg hits Delaware County
Delaware County and state funds for legal aid to the poor face deep cuts. The Legislature slashed funding from 2.2 million to 1.25 million, a 50 percent cut, magnified by federal matching to a 4 million statewide loss. DCLAA projects about 800 fewer clients served this year, from a typical 2,400 cases.

County group weighs cuts as funding uncertain for legal aid
Nance's current staff of 32 provides free services to the poor in landlord tenant disputes family relations including divorce custody adoption and support and consumer issues with loans and defective merchandise. Despite a potential 175000 loss the county group has not laid off attorneys yet and hopes Legislature will restore funds after September reconvenes. Richard at the Ivania Legal Services Center distributes state and federal money and believes a restoration of about a million dollars is possible. The dilemma pits laying off staff and cutting services against continuing normal operations in hopes of September funding. The DCLAA board of 25 led by Jon Auritt will decide at an upcoming meeting in the Delaware County Bar Association Building in Media.
