Raising money across the commonwealth ‘KY Gives Day 2022′

Robert Johns talks to a report about why access to a lawyer in civil matters is urgent.

HAZARD, Ky. (WYMT) - The tenth annual ‘KY Gives Day’ was on May 10th.

‘KY Gives Day’ is a 24 hour period when non-profits across the state strive to raise as much money as possible.

Robert Johns is the Executive Director of Appalred Legal Aid. They provide free legal services and aid in civil cases to lower-income people in Kentucky.

“Housing, custody, health Care, their jobs. It shouldn’t matter if you have enough money to have an attorney, you ought to have the right to have one with you.” He said.
