When another provider is the right next step, we help make the connection. Trusted partner resources include legal support, housing advocacy, domestic violence resources, addiction counseling, and mental health specialists.

Plan your visit

A simple intake helps us understand your situation and connect you with the right resources. Legal services, appointments, and eligibility depend on the partner provider.
