History
In 1976 the North Carolina Bar Association established the Legal
Services of North Carolina (LSNC). In 1979, LSNC founded the Legal Services
of the Blue Ridge as an independent, legal services program that served
low-income clients in the seven-county area surrounding Boone, NC. On
January 1, 1999, Legal Services of the Blue Ridge consolidated with
11 other legal services programs in North Carolina and again became
a branch office of LSNC. On July 1, 2002, LSNC consolidated with other
legal services programs to form "Legal Aid of North Carolina," a legal
service program that served all 100 counties in North Carolina. Accordingly,
the Legal Services of the Blue Ridge offices was renamed as "Legal Aid
of North Carolina - Boone Office" on July 1, 2002.
