Too many Texans face serious legal problems without a lawyer by their side. The Community Justice Workers of Texas (CJW) Program addresses this need by training and equipping trusted community members already working or volunteering at Community Partner Organizations (CPO) to share knowledge and connect people with the help they need.

At the Community Forums, you’ll learn:

• The purpose and scope of the CJW Program
• The role and expectations of CPOs
• The role and scope of CJWs (what they can and cannot do)
• The legal topics we’ll cover such as Food Benefits (SNAP), Social Security Application, Dual Eligibility of Medicare and Medicaid, and Special Education Child Find Violations
• Where to find resources and next steps
