MISSION STATEMENT “MLP-Illinois promotes health equity by providing education, resources, and assistance to medical, legal, and social services professionals working to improve Illinois residents’ health." Where Our Members Work 8 Years of Impact at the Service of MLPs OUR sTORY Turning Interest Into Action The inception of MLP Illinois occurred as part of the Illinois Supreme Court Access to Justice Commission in 2014.

IMPACTO DE LAS ASOCIACIONES MÉDICO-LEGALES Ayudando a la comunidad resolviendo problemas sistémicos Las asociaciones médico-legales en todo el país han tenido un gran impacto y han mejorado la salud y el bienestar de muchos. The Problem: Erie Family Health Centers in Chicago repeatedly saw patients with lead poisoning & were prevented from moving and still maintaining federal housing assistance. ​ The Action: Erie Family Health's Medical-Legal Partnership with Loyola University School of Law and LAF Chicago built a multi-state coalition and petitioned the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development to update its federal lead regulations. ​ The Resolution: After petitioning and engaging Congress members, the proposed lead regulation changes were enforced successfully in January 2017. Currently, “The Lead Safe Housing for Kids Act of 2019”,a proposed bi-partisan bill, would require lead hazard risk assessments and controls in all federally assisted housing. ​ (National Center for Medical-Legal Partnerships) Read More Here Keeping Children Safe From Lead Poisoning ©2022 by MLP-Illinois.
