HALSA is one of the nation's leading public health legal service providers supporting low-income persons living with HIV/AIDS. Through legal representation, advocacy, and community education, HALSA protects rights, ensures dignity and improves health in a number of ways:

• We help clients fight HIV discrimination in work, housing, schools and health care.
• We assist clients with public benefits and insurance issues to ensure access to life-saving medical care.
• We provide immigration assistance vital to securing employment and health insurance.
• We help resolve tax problems and provide for future planning, such as the creation of wills, health directives and child guardianships.
• We advocate for fair laws and policy that improve health care access, ensure privacy, and strengthen protections against HIV discrimination.
• We provide HIV-specific legal education and support to public interest organizations, government agencies, nonprofit health clinics and others serving people living with HIV/AIDS.

HALSA is the primary provider of legal services for the estimated 100,000 people living with HIV in Southern California. We offer free counseling and legal assistance to low-income individuals who cannot afford an attorney. For those who do not meet our income guidelines, we also have a Lawyer Referral Service that provides quality referrals to lawyers that may offer reduced-fee legal assistance.
