Low-income families with children are more likely to experience civil legal problems
related to family safety, education and healthcare.
🔘 Health
Health is a major concern for families with children. Access to legal assistance can address poor housing conditions,
navigate complex health-related systems like disability benefits and resolve disputes about care and coverage.
🔘 Safety and Security
Providing a safe and stable environment for children is critical for their well-being. Legal assistance helps ensure proper financial supports are in place. The ability, when necessary, to secure protection orders
helps break the cycle of domestic violence too many families experience.
🔘 Education
Families want to secure the best education for their children. Legal assistance can help families secure
Individualized Education Programs and needed accommodations for children who need them.
Families deserve stability. Civil legal services provide essential help: preventing wrongful evictions and unsafe living conditions.
