| Desc | AS MVLS CONTINUES ITS LEADERSHIP IN HELPING MARYLANDERS EXPERIENCING HOUSING INSTABILITY, OUR FOCUS HAS TURNED TO THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF OLDER ADULTS. THE ADVANCED PLANNING CAMPAIGN EDUCATES MARYLANDERS ABOUT THE NEED TO EXECUTE PROPER ESTATE PLANNING DOCUMENTS SO THEY CAN PASS THEIR MOST IMPORTANT ASSET, THEIR HOME, TO THE NEXT GENERATION. THIS PROGRAM COMBATS GENERATIONS OF WEALTH EXTRACTION FROM COMMUNITIES OF COLOR, MANY OF WHOM HAD NOT ENGAGED IN ESTATE PLANNING AND HAD LOST THEIR HOMES TO TAX SALE OR FORECLOSURE. THE MY HOME, MY DEED, MY LEGACY CAMPAIGN BUILDS UPON THIS WORK AND PROVIDES PRO BONO LEGAL SERVICES IN THE AREAS OF ESTATE PLANNING AND DEED DISENTANGLEMENT TO CLIENTS WHO WERE TRADITIONALLY DENIED ACCESS TO JUSTICE. (CONTINUED ON SCHEDULE O) IN FY20, MVLS HANDLED 417 ESTATES AND DEEDS CASES. AS MVLS DELVED DEEPER INTO THE ISSUES IMPACTING HOUSING STABILITY FOR OLDER ADULTS AND THEIR FAMILIES, IT BECAME APPARENT THAT LOW INCOME OLDER ADULTS ARE AT PARTICULAR RISK FOR FINANCIAL EXPLOITATION AND ELDER ABUSE. IT IS AGAINST THIS BACKDROP, THAT MVLS LAUNCHED ITS NEWEST PROGRAM, THE ELDER JUSTICE PROGRAM THROUGH EQUAL JUSTICE WORKS. | Desc |

| PART III, LINE I | MVLS IS A "FULL-SERVICE" PRO BONO PROGRAM THAT PROVIDES FREE LEGAL REPRESENTATION TO LOW-INCOME MARYLANDERS IN MOST CIVIL MATTERS SUCH AS DIVORCE, CUSTODY, CONSUMER PROBLEMS (COLLECTION AND BANKRUPTCY), CRIMINAL RECORD RELIEF, FORECLOSURE AND TAX SALE, LANDLORD / TENANT DISPUTES, UNINSURED MOTORIST CLAIMS, INCOME TAX DISPUTES AND BACK TAXES, NAME CHANGE, GUARDIANSHIP AND ESTATE PLANNING AND ADMINISTRATION. IN ADDITION, MVLS ALSO HELPS TO STRENGTHEN DISENFRANCHISED COMMUNITES BY PROVIDING REPRESENTATION AND LEGAL ADVICE TO COMMUNITY BASED NONPROFIT ORGANZATIONS. MVLS PROVIDES PRO BONO SERVICES TO INDIVIDUALS IN ALL MARYLAND COUNTIES. IN ALLEGANY, MONTGOMERY, PRINCE GEORGE'S AND THE FIVE MID-SHORE COUNTIES, WHERE THERE ARE OTHER PRO BONO PROGRAMS, MVLS LIMITS PROGRAM SERVICES TO THOSE SEEKING HELP WITH TAX DISPUTES, ASSISTANCE THROUGH MVLS HUMAN TRAFFICKING PREVENTION PROJECT, OR WHEN THE LOCAL PRO BONO PROGRAM DOES NOT HAVE THE CAPACITY TO PLACE A CASE. SERVICES TO COMMUNITY-BASED NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS ARE ALSO AVAILABLE STATEWIDE. THE TARGET POPULATIONS SERVED BY OUR CORE PRO BONO PROGRAM ARE LOW INCOME INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES. THE POVERTY RATE IN MARYLAND, THOUGH LOWER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE, IS STILL RELATIVELY HIGH AT 9%. IN THE JURISDICTIONS THAT MVLS SERVES, THE POVERTY RATE RANGES FROM A HIGH OF 21.8% (BALTIMORE CITY) TO A LOW OF 5.2% (HOWARD COUNTY). DURING THE FISCAL YEAR, CONTESTED FAMILY LAW MATTERS, HOUSING DEFENSE, CONSUMER DEBT, CHAPTER 7 BANKRUPTCY REQUESTS AND CRIMINAL RECORD EXPUNGEMENT PRESENTED THE MOST URGENT PROBLEMS FOR OUR CLIENTS. MVLS HAS A NUMBER OF SPECIAL PROJECTS THAT SUPPLEMENT OUR CORE PRO BONO EFFORTS.

A CONTINUATION OF THE ONE BALTIMORE FOR JOBS DEMONSTRATION GRANT, THIS PROJECT AIMS TO REMOVE BARRIERS TO EMPLOYMENT FOR BALTIMORE'S VULNERABLE POPULATIONS. BANKRUPTCY IS NOT THE BEST OPTION FOR EVERYONE. THROUGH THE BANKRUPTCY BYPASS PROGRAM, VOLUNTEER ATTORNEYS ASSIST CLIENTS IN DETERMINING IF THEY ARE COLLECTION PROOF, MEANING THAT THEIR INCOME AND ASSETS COULD NOT BE GARNISHED BY CONSUMER LENDERS. AT THE REQUEST OF THE BALTIMORE CITY DISTRICT COURT, IN THE FALL OF 2014, MVLS BEGAN COORDINATING A CLINIC OFFERING FREE LEGAL ADVICE TO CONSUMERS WHO ARE FACING DEBT COLLECTION CASES IN DISTRICT COURT. CONSUMERS MEET WITH A VOLUNTEER ATTORNEY FOR A 10 15 MINUTE CONSULTATION TO GET ADVICE ON HIS OR HER CASE. LAUNCHED IN MARCH OF 2008, THE DEBTOR ASSISTANCE PROJECT PROVIDES PRO SE DEBTORS A HALF-HOUR FREE CONSULTATION WITH AN EXPERIENCED BANKRUPTCY ATTORNEY AT THE U.S. BANKRUPTCY COURTS IN BALTIMORE AND GREENBELT. THE ELDER JUSTICE PROGRAM PROVIDES DIRECT LEGAL SERVICES TO ADULTS OVER 60 WHO ARE VICTIMS OF ELDER ABUSE THROUGH FINANCIAL EXPLOITATION AND ARE FACING OTHER CIVIL LEGAL CHALLENGES RELATED TO HOUSING, CONSUMER LAW AND DEBT COLLECTION, ESTATE PLANNING, AND FAMILY LAW. SINCE THE NATIONAL FORECLOSURE CRISIS BEGAN IN 2008, MVLS HAS BEEN THE LARGEST PRO BONO LEGAL SERVICES PROVIDER IN THE STATEWIDE FORECLOSURE PREVENTION PRO BONO PROJECT. MVLS RELIES ON TRAINED FORECLOSURE VOLUNTEER LAWYERS AND FORECLOSURE STAFF ATTORNEYS TO HELP DISTRESSED HOMEOWNERS IN MARYLAND. IN ADDITION TO FULL REPRESENTATION, MVLS ALSO OPERATES A BRIEF ADVICE CLINIC FOR HOMEOWNERS WHO ARE FACING FORECLOSURE IN BALTIMORE CITY, ANNE ARUNDEL COUNTY, AND CHARLES COUNTY. THE HUMAN TRAFFICKING PREVENTION PROJECT (HTPP) FOCUSES ON REDUCING THE COLLATERAL CONSEQUENCES OF CRIMINAL LEGAL INVOLVEMENT FOR SURVIVORS OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING AND THOSE POPULATIONS MADE MOST VULNERABLE TO EXPLOITATION. THE MVLS LOW-INCOME TAXPAYER CLINIC PROVIDES PRO BONO LEGAL ASSISTANCE TO LOW-INCOME MARYLANDERS WITH IRS AND STATE TAX ISSUES. THESE ISSUES INCLUDE A WIDE VARIETY OF TAX PROBLEMS, INCLUDING DENIAL OF THE EARNED INCOME TAX CREDIT, AUDITS, REFUND CLAIMS, INNOCENT SPOUSE RELIEF, US TAX COURT LITIGATION, AND COLLECTION ISSUES (SUCH AS SETTING UP PAYMENT PLANS AND CURRENTLY NOT-COLLECTIBLE STATUS, OFFERS IN COMPROMISE, LEVY AND LIEN RELEASE). THE JUDICARE PROJECT PROVIDES FREE LEGAL SERVICES TO CLIENTS WHO OTHERWISE WOULD BE UNABLE TO AFFORD REPRESENTATION IN HIGH CONFLICT FAMILY LAW CASES. JUDICARE PANEL ATTORNEYS MUST HAVE AT LEAST THREE YEARS OF FAMILY LAW EXPERIENCE. THE MY HOME, MY DEED, MY LEGACY CAMPAIGN PROVIDES HOMEOWNER CLINICS TO HELP BALTIMORE CITY RESIDENTS STABILIZE THEIR HOMES AND SECURE CRITICALLY IMPORTANT RESOURCES FOR THE LONG-TERM ABILITY TO REMAIN IN THEIR HOMES. PROJECT HOUSEHOLD IS A COALITION OF LEGAL SERVICE NONPROFITS WHO PROVIDE LEGAL SERVICES IN BALTIMORE CITY. THE GOAL OF PROJECT HOUSEHOLD IS TO PROVIDE LEGAL HELP IN ORDER TO HELP OLDER BALTIMOREANS REMAIN IN THEIR HOMES. TYPICAL LEGAL ISSUES MAY INCLUDE TAX SALE, FORECLOSURE, DEBT COLLECTION, DEED AND PROBATE ISSUES, AND FINANCIAL EXPLOITATION.
