Background: Consistent with 

Executive Orders 14058 and 13985, LSC 

reached out to the client-eligible 

community to seek their views on LSC’s 

rulemaking priorities. LSC was 

particularly interested in their views on 

those rules that directly affect 

individuals who qualify for LSC- funded 

legal assistance. Community members 

asked LSC to expand upon parts 1621 

and 1624. Part 1621 requires legal 

services programs that receive financial 

assistance from LSC to establish 

grievance procedures to process 

complaints by applicants regarding the 

denial of legal assistance and 

complaints by clients about the manner 

or quality of legal assistance provided. 

These procedures should, to the extent 

possible, result in the provision of an 

effective remedy in the resolution of 

complaints. The grievance procedures 

required by part 1621 cover complaints 

by individuals denied legal assistance 

and by clients dissatisfied by the 

manner or quality of legal assistance 

received. No part of LSC’s current 

regulations provides a mechanism for 

governing body members to make 

complaints about board malfeasance 

and obtain resolution of those 

complaints. 

Part 1624 requires LSC funded legal 

services programs to remove any 

impediments that may exist to the 

provision of legal assistance to persons 

with disabilities eligible for such 

assistance in accordance with section 

504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. 

Currently, part 1624 explicitly applies 

only to applicants for legal assistance, 

clients, applicants for employment, and 

grantee employees. Because many 

client-eligible members are persons with 

disabilities, the commenters felt 

expanding part 1624 to include 

governing body members was necessary 

to ensure that client-eligible individuals 

are afforded the same opportunities to 

be selected for and participate in grantee 

governing body activities as persons 

who do not have disabilities. 

Through this Notice, LSC is asking 

grantees, clients, other stakeholders, and 

interested members of the public to 

provide LSC with their views on the 

following questions: 

• What policies and procedures do 

your organizations currently have in 

place to address board member 

grievances? Describe the process. 

• Has your organization had positive 

or negative experiences with utilizing 

these procedures in the past? 

• What effect or impact would 

revising parts 1621 and 1624 to apply to 

grantee governing body members have 

on your organization? Unexpected 

outcomes? 

• Based on previous experience, how 

often would your organization use 

regulations like part 1621 and part 

1624? 

• Is there anything else LSC can do to 

help resolve conflicts on your 

organization’s board? 

Interested parties may submit their 

comments in writing to LSC via email, 

fax, or postal mail. Additionally, LSC 

will hold four listening sessions during 

which interested parties may join a 

Zoom call with LSC staff to provide 

their comments orally. The dates and 

access information for those listening 

sessions are contained in the DATES

section of this notice.
