As we approach the first anniversary of pandemic-induced lockdowns, hundreds of thousands of Texans are still grappling with job loss, eviction, or domestic violence stemming from the stay-at-home orders, among other issues. Now, we have just endured one of the worst winter storms on record plunging millions of Texans into frigid temperatures and darkness due to a days-long loss of power, along with loss of clean water.
The pandemic caused many in our communities to seek out civil legal assistance for the first time to obtain benefits, home and safety. The added stresses of the winter storm effects mean even more Texans will need help as we work to recover from the costliest natural disaster in our state’s history.
