Legal Support & Additional Resources
Care providers play a vital role in helping families maintain access to public benefits and trusted legal services.
Uncertainty in U.S. federal immigration policies often fuels fear, leaving families vulnerable to misinformation and fraudulent legal practices.
By identifying and, ideally, building partnerships with key local resources—such as legal aid, public assistance programs, and community organizations—you can guide patients to trustworthy support for their needs.
We have listed a number of organizations that provide legal support and other resources for community members below.
