Asian Outreach & Advocacy Project
With support from the Harry H. Dow Memorial Legal Assistance Fund, the Central West Justice Center aims to increase access to legal services and address the needs of the significant Asian immigrant and refugee populations in the Worcester area. Recognizing the underlying challenges for many low-income and Limited English Proficient people, our project’s outreach and advocacy efforts are tailored towards providing culturally and linguistically responsive advocacy, community education and public awareness of the challenges facing this population. This project also highlights the assets this community brings to central Massachusetts and engages and collaborates with the community and its stakeholders to promote positive impact and empowerment.
