Staff from the Legal Aid Society of Orange County (LASOC) provide free legal help to domestic violence (DV) survivors
who have been mentally, physically, sexually and financially abused by intimate partners. The program will provide Santa
Ana survivors with "wraparound" legal services. These services will address critical legal needs that arise from escape, and
seek to remove legal barriers that keep victims tied to their abusers.
Free legal services can be key to stopping this cycle of violence. When a domestic violence (DV) victim contacts LASOC,
whether through our Hotline, a referral from a shelter or an appointment through the Orange County Family Justice Center,
the first order of business is to ensure that the survivor and her family is safe (roughly 90% of our DV. clients are female), and
to obtain the emergency protective orders needed to prevent further contact by the abuser..
Next, LASOC's trauma -informed staff provide in-depth "legal checkups" to identify other legal problems that keep a
victim from leaving their abuser. These run a wide gamut, including debt and lack of financial security, lack of employment,
housing insecurity, family law matters (e.g. custody and divorce), immigration status, etc. When we can offer holistic legal
services that help our clients successfully dismantle these obstacles, these problems no longer compel victims to return to
their abusers.
CDBG funding will allow LASOC staff to continue providing direct attorney and paralegal assistance to Santa Ana
residents. This includes providing counsel and advice; pleading preparation; settlement negotiations; and representation
before courts and/or administrative agencies when needed.
LASOC makes these services available on a daily basis through our Hotline and appointments with our legal staff. All
services will be provided in a safe and confidential manner using LASOC's Matrix database to track activities and outcomes.
We provide in-house services in English, Spanish, Vietnamese, and Korean, and have interpretation and translation services
for more than 200 additional languages.
EXHIBIT A
Benchmarks
The project will serve 31 clients for the funding requested. To achieve these goals, the project will put into place the following
criteria and benchmarks:
1. Advocacy and representation: The project strives to represent and advocate on behalf of families and children
victimized by domestic violence and crimes. The project is committed to be the voice for this population which is
continuously underserved. The benchmark for this project will be demonstrated through statistical reports of the various
issues the families and children were provided with advocacy and representation. Although 31 clients will be served, many
of the cases will have more than one legal issue addressed.
2. More Complex: The project will be distinguished by the more complex cases it will undertake. The project will not
simply prepare documents, but will look at each case individual to strive to provide advocacy and representation. The
benchmark will be the actual number of representations from the total number of clients served. Therefore, the project will
seeks to grow and expand on this objective and criteria to assist families and children.
3. ESL outreach: The project values and understands the importance of conducting outreach to both ESL and non -ESL
families with children. The goal is to reach families who would not necessarily contact Legal Aid Society of Orange County.
The ESL population should be at least 40%. Therefore, this will be the benchmark and goal for the project.
4. The number of Collaborative partners:
As part of its delivery of services to families and children victimized by domestic violence, LASOC will continue to build
networks and collaborative partnerships with the courts, social service agencies, community-based organizations, schools
and other agencies. This will be important to fully understand the population being served and to provide referrals which
are outside the civil legal delivery of services. The benchmark will be to collaborate closely with at least 1 important
stakeholder for referrals and other services for this project.
)erformance Measures
Matrix, LASOC's proprietary database and case management system, works in conjunction with LASOC's toll free Hotline
and has many features that are embedded in the program and assist with determining eligibility, conflicts of interest, case
acceptance and referrals. Matrix is used for opening and closing cases. The system incorporates scripts on several
substantive legal areas which enables the Hotline intake workers to document all appropriate information related to the
callers case to assist the attorney with providing advice and determining the services that should be extended to the client.
The system captures and retains all appropriate data at intake; screens applicants for eligibility and case type; completes an
immediate conflict check; makes data available In real time; has the capacity to share client and case data among offices and
staff; securely transfers data; can generate reports; has the ability to assign funding source codes to cases and can be
customized in house. These capabilities provide meaningful data for program evaluation, Including specialized reports that
will be used to measure performance outcomes for this project.
