BayLegal Launches New Resource Page for Youth During the COVID-19 Pandemic

BayLegal’s Youth Justice unit is working throughout the COVID-19 pandemic to continue providing legal advice and representation to youth and caregivers. As part of this work, our team has launched a new web page, Resources for Youth During the COVID-19 Pandemic. We encourage young people and caregivers with questions about legal rights relating to distance learning, special education, foster care and services for former foster youth, access to mental health and other health care services, and a range of public benefits and emergency assistance, to consult this page for links to resources and ways to contact our attorneys for help.

Please bookmark and check back for updates—and share widely among youth, parents and caregivers, and service providers working with young people!
