Let's Celebrate!
Join us as we celebrate ten years of ArchCity Defenders working to make St. Louis a more just and equitable place to live.
For 10 years, we’ve represented clients in courts throughout the region, helped people get off the streets and into homes, challenged the systems that created and worsened their poverty, and together with our clients, impacted communities, grassroots organizers, supporters, and co-counsel, spoken out against these injustices. We do everything we can to spark conversation and engagement on issues impacting our clients and communities. We hope you’ll join us in celebrating 10 years of service and action.
