A coalition of Law Students is here to help you navigate the difficulties created by mandatory quarantine and shut downs required by the Coronavirus.

We are not lawyers and we will not be officially representing you. But we are available to help you find resources to support you and to complete applications for Unemployment Compensation, SNAP, and other benefits available to you in light of the impact the Coronavirus has had on your life and ability to work.

Please answer the questions below and someone will be in contact with you shortly.

If we can help you directly, we will. If not, we will help you understand the issue(s) you are facing and connect you with organizations which can best serve you.
