About New York State Interest on Lawyer Account Fund
Founded in 1983, with the strong support of the New York State Bar Association, the legislature created the IOLA Fund to provide additional financial support to civil legal service organizations that had been decimated by federal budget cuts. Today, the IOLA Fund helps low-income people in New York State obtain help with civil legal problems affecting their most basic needs, such as food, shelter, jobs, and access to health care.
The IOLA Fund is a fiduciary fund administered by IOLA's publicly appointed Board of Trustees. The revenue is held in the custody of the State Comptroller and, subject to government procurement rules, provides the funding for grants awarded by the IOLA Board of Trustees to non-profit civil legal services providers for the purpose of delivering civil legal services to low-income New Yorkers and for improving the administration of justice. IOLA grantees vary in size and focus, providing a myriad of legal services: direct representation, advice and counsel, pro se assistance, legal education, and referrals to low-income or otherwise disadvantaged individuals. IOLA grantees also provide legal training, engage in partnerships and community collaborations, and initiate impact cases that enhance the quality of life for all New Yorkers. IOLA's current five-year grant cycle awarded $562.5 million to 87 nonprofit organizations that provide legal assistance to people living across New York's 64 counties.
