Our Vision
To make our communities more just and inclusive by facilitating access to legal services for all
Our Mission
To provide people in our communities with expert legal, mediation,
and education services they would not otherwise have access to and in
doing so, to address underlying issues of injustice and exclusion while
working for real change.
What we do
Community Law & Mediation (CLM), previously known as Coolock
Community Law Centre, was established on 1 April 1975, as the first,
independent, community-based law centre in Ireland. In 2012, we opened a
second community law centre in Limerick.
CLM works to empower individuals experiencing disadvantage through:
- Free legal information, advice and representation;
- Free mediation and conflict coaching;
- Information and education; and
- Advocating for Change
