We are excited to announce that this year marks the 25th anniversary of the Michigan Poverty Law Program!
The Michigan Poverty Law Program (MPLP) is 25 years old! And what an amazing 25 years it has been. In 1997, Legal Services of South Central Michigan and the University of Michigan Law School established MPLP as a cooperative effort. MPLP was created as the state support organization that provides training, case consultation, and advocacy support to all the civil legal aid offices in Michigan. Since then, MPLP has made significant progress in addressing the legal needs of low-income households in Michigan.
