file signatureThe PCC Paralegal Program and PCC Access and Re-entry are honored to announce that we have received a grant from the City of Portland Cannabis Social Equity Program to run a free legal clinic at PCC Cascade – the PCC Legal Resource Center.
The PCC Legal Resource Center will provide criminal record expungements, eviction expungements, DACA applications and renewals, housing and immigration court navigation, and legal referral services. We will provide holistic assistance to offer participants the opportunity to consider the many educational and workforce-training programs available at PCC.
We can’t wait to get started! We are also thrilled for the other community organizations that got funded, and we look forward to collaborating with all of them in the future.
