More than a law firm.
We are a lifeline.

AID Arkansas is a nonprofit law firm built on a simple conviction: every survivor deserves skilled, compassionate legal representation, regardless of their language, background, or circumstances.

We are one of a small number of nonprofit law firms in Arkansas, and the only one accredited by the U.S. Department of Justice. That accreditation isn't just a credential — it's a commitment. It means our legal team meets the highest standards of practice, and that survivors who come to us receive representation they can trust.

We offer fully bilingual services in English, Spanish and various other languages.

Guided by Humanity.

  • Mision

    To provide trauma-informed legal services to survivors of human trafficking and child abuse across Arkansas and beyond.

  • Vision

    AID envisions a world where survivors of trafficking and child abuse thrive long term and are no longer exploitable.

  • We Value Our Neighbors

    At AID, we believe in loving all of our neighbors by providing survivors with trauma-informed, holistic legal services. Whenever possible, we do that pro bono, thanks to generous donors.

  • We Value Equality

    Legal representation should not be a privilege. We exist because the legal system too often fails the most vulnerable — and our role is to help correct that, one client at a time.

  • We Value Justice

    Survivors are courageously navigating systems that were not built with them in mind. We partner with them to ensure that they can access their rights.

We started AID because the gap was urgent.

AID Arkansas was founded on the recognition that survivors of trafficking and child abuse in our state faced a system full of barriers — legal processes they couldn’t navigate alone, services that didn’t speak their language, and organizations that cared but couldn’t provide formal legal representation.

We recognized that survivors face systemic legal barriers that they need support navigating. We were inspired to found AID Arkansas by a client who we supported through a legal case and she then gave us $500 to pay it forward.

Today, we serve survivors across Arkansas and beyond. We have grown our capacity, earned DOJ accreditation, and built referral relationships with social workers, healthcare providers, schools, and community organizations across the state. But our team has never changed: every survivor deserves to be heard, believed, and represented.

Our Team

We bring legal expertise, lived proximity to this work, and a shared belief that every survivor deserves someone in their corner.
