Come learn about a recent study of client access and barriers to legal services and weigh-in with your feedback. How do the study findings compare to your practice experience? Don’t miss this opportunity to examine and discuss the MN-CABS Study, the impetus for its development, the methodology used, the data collected, and its recommendations. Most important, this session is an opportunity to examine as a statewide legal services community what we can learn from the MN-CABS Study as we seek to enhance client service delivery throughout Minnesota.
The Minnesota Client Access, Barriers and Solutions Study ("MN-CABS Study") is a joint project of the Minnesota State Bar Association Legal Services for The Disadvantaged Committee, the Bremer Foundation, the Minnesota Legal Services Coalition and the Legal Services Advisory Committee. The first of its kind in Minnesota, the MN-CABS Study was designed to identify specific groups of legal services-eligible clients around Minnesota, the barriers they face to obtaining legal services, and strategies for overcoming those barriers.
