Advocacy and Legal Support for Survivors
The Nebraska Coalition to End Sexual and Domestic Violence is a vital non-profit organization based in Lincoln, Nebraska, dedicated to the prevention and elimination of violence. While primarily an advocacy group, the Coalition provides critical direct legal services to survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking. If you are a survivor seeking justice and safety, this organization offers a lifeline. They do not operate like a commercial firm where you simply order a lawyer; instead, they provide specialized legal aid to those who are often most vulnerable and in need of protection.
Specialized Legal Services
The Coalition’s legal program is focused on humanitarian immigration relief and civil protection. Their staff attorneys and legal team provide direct representation and assistance in specific areas, including:
- Immigration Relief: Assisting survivors with U-Visas (for victims of crimes), T-Visas (for trafficking victims), and VAWA Self-Petitions. This work helps immigrant survivors escape abuse without fear of deportation.
- Protection Orders: Helping victims navigate the legal system to obtain domestic abuse protection orders to ensure their immediate safety.
- Legal Referrals: Connecting survivors with a statewide network of attorneys for other legal needs, such as divorce or custody disputes.
A Statewide Network
Founded to unite local programs across the state, the Coalition works to ensure that every Nebraskan has access to support. They provide training to law enforcement, medical professionals, and other attorneys to better serve victims. If you urgently need a lawyer for a safety emergency, their network can help guide you to the right resources, whether through their own legal clinic or their member programs. Their work is grounded in an anti-oppression framework, ensuring that all survivors are treated with dignity and respect.

This location in East Lincoln is situated in a professional office park, providing a secure and confidential environment for clients.
