Health Care Services
If you have a medical issue or disability and have been denied the medical services or equipment that you need, LEAF can help you evaluate that denial and get the services that you need.
Discrimination
Despite the Federal and State laws that prohibit discrimination against individuals due to age, sex, nationality, race, disability, gender identity or expression, many individuals have experienced discrimination in work, school, housing, and the community. LEAF can help you address this discrimination and understand the various means of righting these wrongs.

Children with qualifying disabilities are entitled to a Free Appropriate Public Education. Schools should work with families to identify educational, social, physical and management needs and the appropriate supports and services to meet those needs. However, sometimes this process breaks down LEAF will advocate for you at a school meeting, an administrative proceeding or behind the scenes to ensure you know your child’s rights and they receive the services they need.
