Conferences
Each year, the National Center for Medical-Legal Partnership hosts a National MLP Summit where partnerships from around the country (and people interested in developing a partnership) come together to discuss advancements in the model and share best practices. Staff from partnership sites in the MLP Network also frequently offer sessions at a variety of national medical and legal conferences.
