With a new Executive Director in place, the organization is building out a senior leadership team positioned to strengthen its operational foundation and expand its impact. Legal Aid has grown in recent years and is committed to ensuring that its infrastructure, systems, and people are fully equipped to support that growth. The Deputy Director of Operations will be a foundational member of the leadership team, providing the operational leadership and coordination that enables Legal Aid's programs and staff to focus on what matters most: delivering high-quality civil legal aid to clients across our 40-county service area.

Ensure a safe, functional, and welcoming work environment for staff and clients.

The Organization

Legal Aid of Western Missouri provides free civil (non-criminal) legal assistance to people who need it most and can afford it least. With offices in the Kansas City area, Joplin, St. Joseph and Warrensburg, we serve a 40-county area where 295,000 people live in poverty. By providing free legal representation to people facing financial hardship or life-changing challenges, Legal Aid helps ensure that justice is accessible to everyone—not just those who can afford it.
