Conferences
NLADA's 2026 Annual Conference is a space for learning, sharing, and strategizing that strengthens access to justice for people and communities with limited financial resources. The conference program this year will engage attendees in sessions exploring how civil, criminal, and community advocacy protects rights, secures benefits, and defends against harm. Sessions will also highlight opportunities for collective impact and interdisciplinary collaboration.
Webinars
NLADA hosts webinars that strengthen the work of the civil legal aid and public defender communities.
NLADA records the webinars we host so that people from across our community can take advantage of the ideas and expertise those sessions offer. Most be watched, along with other videos, on our YouTube channel; the sessions on budget advocacy organized in collaboration with American University are hosted on its site.
Join us for the next Community Drop-In Discussion where community members will share strategies for maintaining personal wellness and community resilience. Advocates from all communities (civil legal aid, client/community advocates and public defenders) are encouraged to join and contribute to this supportive space.
Drop-In Discussion is designed as a space for advocates (civil legal aid, client/community advocates, public defenders) to discuss changes to federal funding; implications for state and local funding; private philanthropy opportunities; coalition building; and other supports for access to justice efforts.
