About Legal Services of Northern California

Location:

517 12th Street, Sacramento, CA 95814, US

Mission Statement

The mission of Legal Services of Northern California is to provide quality legal services to empower the poor to identify and defeat the causes and effects of poverty within our community, efficiently utilizing all available resources.

Description

​For over 60 years Legal Services of Northern California (LSNC) has been fighting for the civil rights of our clients. LSNC is the strong voice that continues to speak out on behalf of our clients living in our communities, even as the state and local "safety nets" for the poor continue to crumble.

Every February, LSNC is proud to present the annual Valentine Run/Walk, a classic Sacramento event for individuals and families of all ages and abilities. The Valentine Run/Walk is kid friendly, stroller friendly and canine-companion friendly! Participants are encouraged to wear their hearts on their sleeves, socks, tutus, onesies; and collars to compete for best dressed awards and to show their love of the Valentine Run/Walk. Enjoy either a 1.8 mile untimed course or the 4 mile course, which can be timed or untimed, that meanders through the Arden Park neighborhood behind Country Club Plaza Mall. After the run, enjoy refreshments, entertainment, vendors; and of course a festive Awards Ceremony.

Proceeds from the Valentine Run/Walk are directed where the need is greatest and help sustain LSNC’s services that empower the low income and help secure basic needs such as access to health care and a safe place to live.
