Today Radioactivity goes over how legal aid societies around the state- non-profit groups that provide legal services to low income people are being decimated.
Around the state when a low income person needs legal help with a civil issue- housing, employment, divorce, immigration, foreclosure or dozens of other legal matters they can turn to legal services.

Kent R. Spuhler, Executive Director of Florida Legal Services, Inc. about this issue.
