Understanding Rural Legal Deserts
Rural legal deserts have become a growing topic of interest for rural states and small communities. We find that over half of non-metro counties in the US are legal deserts, but in Iowa only 10% of rural counties lack enough lawyers. We recommend licensed legal paraprofessional programs as a long-term solution to address legal deserts. We also recommend community-based programs to promote legal consciousness so rural residents are aware of their legal rights, the legal process, and how to access legal services.
