NMRLS Capital Campaign

Rendering of one-story office building with a road in the foreground and trees surrounding the structure.

North Mississippi Rural Legal Services (NMRLS) was established in August 1966 as a legal training program for students at the University of Mississippi School of Law.  For over 60 years, NMRLS has provided free civil legal services to low-income individuals, seniors, veterans, people with disabilities, and families throughout a 39-county region of North Mississippi with offices in Oxford, Greenville, Clarksdale, and West Point.

 

In 2026 NMRLS embarked upon a Capital Campaign to construct an eight thousand square foot (8,000 sq ft) office building for its Oxford administrative and litigation staff. The building will be located at 106 County Road 321 (Pea Ridge Road), Oxford, Mississippi. Scroll to learn how you can make an impact!
