Legal Services for Families/Domestic Violence: The Family Law unit provided services to 931 clients and closed 885 cases of protective injunctions, personal safety, custody, divorce, child support, visitation, and paternity. Casework is holistic in nature as these clients may also receive legal assistance with housing matters and public income maintenance benefits for which they are eligible. This assistance gives survivors of violence the tools they need to become independent and self-sufficient and to create a new beginning for themselves and their children. These services are supported by funding from the US Department of Justice Office on Violence Against Women, Pinellas County, the Florida Office of the Attorney General, Florida Department of Children and Families and local area funding.
