New COVID Effects on Clients

Perhaps you’ve seen us write about the impact COVID has had on our clients, and what we’ve done about that thanks to your support.

Just this month, COVID impacted our clients in two new ways:

1) Abusers have cashed COVID stimulus checks that are meant for clients and their children Life Span attorneys help clients to retrieve this through court or petition with the IRS.

2) Abusers, exercising their power and control, decide to refuse to become vaccinated, putting family members at risk while demanding joint custody of a child.

So while vaccine availability and stimulus checks are certainly good news, they do not come without a fight for many of our clients.

What continues to be the biggest issue we see in our client survivors? Survivors in need of financial assistance: help with the rent, utilities, childcare, and basic necessities. Wherever possible, we help clients navigate government covid assistance programs,

When all else fails, we tap our emergency client assistance fund. If you are able, please consider donating to it today.
