ATJ Commission Launches Legal Help Access Point in Catahoula Parish On January 25, 2023, the Louisiana Access to Justice Commission hosted a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony to celebrate the launch of the third Legal Help Access Point in the state, located in the LaSalle Community Action Association in Harrisonburg, Louisiana. The Access Point allows users to: get access to Self-Help resources and automated court forms; find out if you qualify for free legal aid; get customized legal help and referrals through the Louisiana Bar Foundation and Lagniappe Law Lab’s Civil Legal Navigator; meet virtually with an attorney in a confidential enclosed space; attend a virtual hearing with participating courts via an online court program.Initial locations for Legal Help Access Points were all libraries, with the first two being established in the Vidalia branch of the Concordia Parish Library and in the East Carroll Parish Library in Lake Providence. The Harrisonburg location is the first to be installed in a community action association (CAA), which also happens to be steps away from the 7th Judicial District Court in Catahoula parish.
