BBA Officers & Council. Let the Record Show. With BBA President Julia Huston. BBA Officers & Council. Why I Walk to the Hill. January 22, 2015. There’s no other way to say it. We have an access to justice crisis in Massachusetts. As the BBA’s Task Force on Civil Legal Aid. Stated, nearly two-thirds of people who seek civil legal aid are turned away because the organizations that provide free legal services don’t have the resources to help. That’s astonishing.
