For the most up-to-date information about the Medical-Legal Partnership Network, please sign-up for our bi-weekly e-newsletter.
We encourage you to consider signaling your program’s affiliation with the Network by incorporating “Medical-Legal Partnership” or “Medical-Legal Partnership for Children” as part of your partnership’s name.
While many partnership sites are currently based in Pediatrics, there are also sites based in Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, Oncology, Geriatrics and other medical settings. We encourage and support the development of partnerships in all medical disciplines through technical assistance and welcome their participation in the Medical-Legal Partnership Network.
