At Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), we know that healthcare providers can deliver better care when we partner with groups that are committed to family and child well-being outside the healthcare setting.

CHOP's Medical Legal Partnership  provides pro bono legal services and legal representation to families of patients in select CHOP locations whose health and well-being may be negatively affected by a legal barrier.

Camren's Story

Children's health and well-being goes far beyond the healthcare environment. Research shows that a child's overall health is heavily impacted by a range of social and economic factors that often have legal solutions. 

The medical legal partnership model has been proven to be an effective way to meet the needs of families facing complex health issues in combination with other social and physical stressors. Since launching, the  Medical Legal Partnership has resolved legal needs for more than 450 families.
