  • It is with regret that LAOC has decided to cancel its rescheduled Night in Monte Carlo fundraiser for this year.
    • As much as we love this event, we do not feel comfortable hosting an in-person event of that size under the current circumstances.
  • BUT!  We are excited to announce our Virtual 5K taking place the week of October 10 through October 17!
    • We will provide walking and running routes,
    • There will be a silent auction, and
    • We will honor our volunteer awardees.
    • Stay tuned for more details as the event date approaches!
    • Please contact Karen Nath at karen@laocmn.org with any questions.

Legal Assistance of Olmsted County
  • Legal Assistance of Olmsted County is pleased to announce that it received a $10,000 COVID relief grant from the Minnesota State Bar Foundation for its work providing civil legal aid during the pandemic.  Thank you to the MSBF for its generosity.
  • LAOC always can use new volunteers!  The time you donate to help someone in poverty with a civil legal problem makes a big difference.  Opportunities include:
    • Staffing a virtual clinic (only a two-hour time commitment!);
    • Providing a one-time consultation to a client; or
    • Taking a case for full representation.
  • To our current volunteers who have provided valuable assistance during the pandemic-- a HUGE SHOUT-OUT!  Thank you!
  • To volunteer or for more information, please email Karen Nath at karen@laocmn.org.
