Mission
Legal Council for Health Justice uses the power of the law to secure dignity, opportunity, and well-being for people facing barriers due to illness or disability.
About
Children & Families ProgramThis program provided legal services to children with complex health conditions in medical-legal partnerships with ACCESS Community Health (two clinic sites), Children's Place Association, Comer Children's Hospital, Lurie Children's Hospital (hospital and clinic sites), and Mt. Sinai Hospital. Working collaboratively with our medical partners, Legal Council staff assisted children and their families in gaining access to educational services, health care, disability benefits, and other public benefits as well as providing assistance on other legal issues confronting families. Services included individual legal representation, outreach and education for medical and legal professionals, clients and low-income communities, and social services advocates. Project staff also advocate for legal changes to remedy client legal issues at state and national levels.
