The Texas Bar Foundation, or TBF, has awarded a $34,485 grant to Dallas-based Advocates for Community Transformation, or ACT, to increase its casework capacity in Fort Worth, according to a press release.
This grant, the largest ACT has received from the TBF according to a press release, will help ACT hire a community advocate, essential for the development of casework. Community advocates educate residents about their rights, explain ACT’s free legal services, and build partnerships with community organizations and leaders, police, and other local nonprofits.
