The Arizona Center for the Law in the Public Interest is a private,
non-profit public interest law firm dedicated to representing
the people of Arizona on issues that affect us all, including
clean air and water, school finance reform, open government, consumer
rights, campaign finance reform, and the protection of our public
lands and natural resources. Since 1974, the Center has fought
for individuals and groups who lack the power or money to take
on big business and big government.
Center staff attorneys litigate and advocate before administrative
agencies, legislative bodies and the courts at no charge to our
clients. A volunteer Board of Directors approves litigation and
assists with strategic planning and fundraising. The Center maintains
offices in Phoenix and Tucson.
The Center funds its work through contributions
from individuals, law firms, foundations and other organizations.
Private donations, large and small, have allowed the Center to
be an independent public advocate and watchdog for over 30 years.
