Community Christian Legal Aid

Welcome to the Team, Jessica MacCallum!

We are thrilled to introduce Jessica MacCallum, the newest member of the CCLA family! Jessica joins us as our full-time Intake Coordinator - a role created in direct response to the growing demand for family legal services in our community.

Jessica brings a remarkable depth of experience and education to this position. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and spent years serving in a variety of capacities in the oil and gas sector across Latin America. She also holds a paralegal certificate from Lone Star College - and as if that weren't impressive enough, Jessica speaks three languages fluently.

A resident of The Woodlands, Jessica is married with two grown children. Her professional background, multilingual abilities, and genuine heart for service make her an exceptional fit for the work we do at CCLA.

We are so grateful she is here - and we know our clients will be in wonderful hands from the very first call.

Please join us in welcoming Jessica to the team!

Celebrating our mentor, volunteer and chief encourager today, Lee Crawley on his 29th Birthday at our office! Happy Birthday Lee! We hope you enjoy this new year around the sun, with lots of coffee of course.

"I missed the Derby Day for Justice Gala... can I still help?"

We have been getting this question a lot since our record-breaking night, and the answer is a resounding YES! 🎉

While the hats are put away and the gala is over, the work of Community Christian Legal Aid continues year-round. The families we serve in Montgomery and Harris Counties rely on the ongoing generosity of our community.

If you want to get involved, here are three impactful ways you can help CCLA today:

💙 Make a Donation: Your financial support directly funds our ability to take on more cases and help more families navigate the legal system. Every dollar makes a difference!

🤝 Volunteer Your Time & Skills: Are you an attorney, paralegal, or someone with administrative skills? We are always looking for passionate volunteers to join our clinic nights or take on a case.

📱 Share Our Message: One of the easiest and most powerful ways to help is simply by spreading the word! Like, comment, follow, and share our social media posts so that families in need know we are here for them.

Please visit: cclegaidaid.org Thank you for standing with us and for being such an incredible community of support. We couldn't do this without you!

WOW! 🏇✨ We are still speechless from the incredible success of our Derby Day for Justice Gala!

To everyone who attended, thank you! The beautiful hats, the joy in the room, and the overwhelming generosity you showed for our mission meant the world to us.

Because of YOU, we raised an estimated $320,000! 🎉 This represents a 33% increase over last year and is a record-breaking moment for Community Christian Legal Aid. Every dollar raised directly allows us to stand up for justice and serve even more families in our community. We absolutely could not do this vital work without you.

If you weren't able to attend or haven't yet contributed, there is still time to be part of this historic campaign! Donations are still open here: 🔗 https://givebutter.com/c/TAitWh
