Toward a Model of Community Representation for Legal Assistance Lawyering: Examining the Role of Legal Assistance Agencies in Drug- Related Evictions from Public Housing

Golden, Robin
Abstract
Conflict over drug-related evictions of tenants from public housing projects is a thin strand in the tangled web of issues facing America's urban poor. It is a microcosm, however, of a larger dynamic that is the setting for this paper: the struggle between individual rights and community responsibility and the implications of that struggle for legal assistance lawyering.
