ULS has a long and storied past in the District of Columbia. ULS was established in 1967 to provide legal services for DC residents with low and moderate income. The founders of ULS, five Catholic priests, two of whom had ties to Catholic University, created a community clinical program for law students.
Although the program lost all ties to Catholic University shortly after its first year, the name remained. ULS began receiving funding from the United Way, the Campaign for Human Development, the DC Bar and the Dominican Order. By the 1970s, ULS had a small staff as well as Vista attorneys.
