Legal Services of Northern California (LSNC) is a nonprofit organization that helps low-income individuals address poverty-related legal issues through a range of services. It serves 23 counties in Northern California and operates nine offices in Sacramento, Auburn, Chico, Eureka, Grass Valley, Redding, Ukiah, Vallejo and Woodland. The organization uses a multi‑faceted delivery model that includes telephone hotlines, counseling, clinics, self‑help materials, community legal education, and direct representation in court or administrative hearings, and it partners with other legal services programs, community groups, and government agencies. Its priorities center on families, housing preservation, economic stability, safety, health care, and civil rights. LSNC runs specialized programs for seniors, a statewide senior legal hotline, health-related services, a homelessness-focused clinic in Sacramento, and other advocacy initiatives, complementing its general legal services. Based in Sacramento, California, and founded in 1956, LSNC also engages in advocacy and litigation when appropriate, such as a 2021 case against the Chico City Council regarding policies affecting people experiencing homelessness.
