Hello! So that we can better understand the needs of our users, we want to know who our users are.
To serve you better, ILAO would like to understand who uses IllinoisLegalAid.org and why. The information you provide will help us identify how to improve our services.

We especially want to hear from those who have felt underrepresented or ignored when seeking information and help.
