Resources
The materials in the resource section were developed by staff at the National Center for Medical-Legal Partnership and sites in the MLP Network. We encourage you to use the resources and adapt them to your partnership. Please be sure to acknowledge the National Center and, where applicable, the medical-legal partnership that developed the resource on those materials, including training presentations.
You don't need a user log-in to learn more about MLP or access the resources you need to start a partnership!
The resources you need to start planning your partnership can be found on the website without a user account. Follow this link to get started!
The only portion of the website that requires a user account is the MLP Network Resource Library.
The MLP Network Resource Library is a secure place for partnerships already engaged in service delivery to share resources, and access is restricted to members of the MLP Network only. Partnerships in the planning stages cannot obtain user log-ins to the website. Once your partnership is up and running, you can apply for membership in the MLP Network.
If you work at an active MLP that is not on the Network Map, find out more about Joining the MLP Network.
These [medical-legal partnerships] address the causes of health challenges like malnutrition, homelessness, life-threatening asthma, or the choice between paying for food or medicine. Medical-legal partnership programs help people navigate complex systems that alter the social determinants of health. They secure income supports, get rid of mold in the rental apartment, and involve health care providers in the policy process to tackle patterns that affect many individuals.
