The State Bar of Arizona created the Arizona Foundation for Legal Services & Education as a separate 501(c) 3 organization in 1978, charging it with the mission of promoting access to justice for all Arizonans. The Foundation strives to fulfill this mission by preparing Arizona youth for civic responsibility and providing access to justice for Arizonans most in need. With the support of volunteers and through the provision of technical and financial assistance to probation & resource officers, teachers & administrators, private attorneys & judges, and legal service attorneys & advocates, the Foundation works to level the playing field, so that all in Arizona have knowledge and access to the justice systems. To find out more about the programs of the Arizona Foundation for Legal Services & Education, visit the Law Related Education, Legal Services or IOLTA areas of this website.

The Arizona Foundation for Legal Services & Education Board of Directors and Foundation Staff convene several topical workgroup committees, some of which are open to public members.
