Volunteers in this clinic advocate for clients’ right to receive public
benefits. Clients at this clinic are poor, often unemployed or homeless
being denied access to benefits, such as foodstamps, housing or meal
vouchers, or medical assistance, that they are entitled by law to receive
and which are often their last resort for survival. Clinics occur at various
General Relief (LA County’s term for public assistance) offices.
