About Community Justice Project

Community Justice Project is a distinguished legal services association/organization based in Reading, PA. Rooted in a deep commitment to fairness and accessibility, our mission is to bridge the gap between complex legal processes and the community members who need support most. Whether you’re navigating family law, tenant-landlord concerns, or seeking guidance on other civil matters, our team provides clear, compassionate counsel every step of the way. As a local nonprofit, we understand the unique challenges faced by residents of Berks County. We combine expert knowledge with a heartfelt dedication to help each individual feel heard, respected, and empowered.

A Welcoming Atmosphere

From the moment you walk through our doors, you’ll sense the spirit of genuine hospitality that defines Community Justice Project. Clients routinely describe their first impressions as “welcoming” and even use the French term “accueillant” to convey how warm and inviting our reception truly is. We believe that a friendly greeting can transform a stressful legal appointment into a positive experience. Our reception area is designed to create calm—comfortable seating, clear signage, and a genuine smile from a staff member who treats you not as a case file, but as a valued neighbor.

Professionalism at Every Step

Professionalism isn’t just a buzzword here—it’s an operating principle. Local clients have applauded our approach as “quite professional” and “assez professionnel,” recognizing how we balance firm expertise with patient guidance. Every consultation begins with thoughtful listening: we take the time to understand your unique situation and outline potential paths forward in plain language. Throughout case management, you’ll find our attorneys and paralegals meticulously organized, punctual for appointments, and consistently transparent about next steps. This unmistakable professionalism provides the confidence you need to move through the legal system with clarity and assurance.

A Team Driven by Community Values

At our core, Community Justice Project thrives on collaboration. Our staff members are more than legal experts; they are passionate advocates dedicated to the well-being of Reading’s diverse population. We partner with neighborhood groups, faith-based organizations, and social service agencies to reach those who might otherwise face barriers to representation. By working together, we amplify our impact—whether through educational workshops on tenants’ rights, outreach events at community centers, or informal drop-in hours for quick legal questions. This community-focused model ensures that help is never out of reach.
