Central Virginia Legal Aid Society is a legal services organization that provides free civil legal assistance and preventative education to low-income individuals in crisis. Its services are delivered through staff attorneys and volunteer private attorneys, with offices in Richmond, Petersburg, and Charlottesville, serving five cities and counties in the region. The organization targets residents within its service area who meet income and resource eligibility, offering advice or representation to help ensure access to justice for those unable to afford legal help. Based in the Richmond area, CVLAS operates within the legal aid sector and aims to prevent homelessness and other crises by supporting clients through litigation and educational resources. A recent development noted is the retirement of the director of litigation, reflecting ongoing leadership changes within the organization.
