Your Impact
MJM Funds
General Operations for Free Legal Representation
Through this fund, MJM can cover all legal fees for clients, including representation, DNA and drug testing, records, mediation, filing fees, and more. We strongly believe that vulnerable community members deserve quality representation no matter the severity or length of their case.
Safe Home Program
The Safe Home Program provides our clients with emergency financial aid for necessities like rent, utilities, car repairs, daycare, and more. Through this fund, we can help caregivers create or maintain a safe environment for children to thrive, rather than face homelessness or return to abusive situations due to financial hardship.
Counseling Services
MJM covers therapy fees by independent licensed professionals that provide mental health services including play therapy, and individual and family counseling. These sessions empower our clients by helping them process trauma, learn coping skills, and set individual goals. Together, clients and their therapists assess progress until the client is ready and able to move forward independently.
