Here is our nonprofit determination letter from the IRS, our 501(3)(c) letter.
Kansas Legal Services (KLS) was born in 1964 during the War on Poverty, and became a statewide organization in 1977.
KLS provides legal services to alleviate low income Kansans’ poverty burdens. KLS has eleven legal services field offices and two mediation offices located across Kansas.
In 2019, the Board of Directors examined KLS’ mission statement and reaffirmed it with this simple statement:
Every four or five years, Kansas Legal Services asks Kansans to fill out a questionnaire telling us what they need -- legal needs and other needs. This is the year!
We published the results of our needs survey from 2020 and now we are going to find out how things have, or have not changed.

Watch a short video about Kansas Legal Services.
Overview
Kansas Legal Services, a statewide non-profit corporation, is devoted to helping low income Kansans meet their basic needs through the provision of important legal and mediation services.
The Office of the Attorney General gives info for victims of crimes.
If someone was charged with a crime against you, this is what you can expect from the prosecutors' office.
Often, the prosecutor will have someone in their office whose duty it is to talk with you and helping you with the process.
Kansas Crime Victims Bill of Rights
Over the last 40 years, Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) made life better for millions of workers. You may have extra money waiting for you. If you qualify and claim the credit, it could be several thousand dollars from the IRS for some workers.
Don’t be the one in five that misses this credit!
The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) helps low- to moderate-income workers and families get a tax break. If you qualify, you can use the credit to reduce the taxes you owe – and maybe increase your refund.
Please watch this video, with an introduction by Marilyn Harp, former KLS Executive Director and now a volunteer attorney, that shows you all the work that KLS does for Kansans.
You can donate to KLS by going here.
