Legal Aid of Southeastern PA

11/05/2026

The impact of legal aid extends far beyond a single case. It shapes families, communities, and generations.

That's why we're proud to recognize Buckley Brion McGuire & Morris, LLP as an Equal Justice Sponsor of LASP's 25th Anniversary Celebration.

On Nov. 20, 2026, you'll have the opportunity to experience "Stumbling Stones" and hear the remarkable story of John Rosenberg, recipient of the 2026 American Bar Association Medal, the ABA's highest honor. From N**i Germany to the Civil Rights Movement and the pioneering of rural legal aid in Appalachia, his life's work helped transform how legal services are delivered to vulnerable communities.

The impact of that work continues today. Many of the principles that guide legal aid organizations, including LASP, trace back to innovations championed by John and his colleagues decades ago.

Even more special, attendees will have the opportunity to meet John and Jean Rosenberg and hear directly from them during a live post-performance conversation and audience Q&A.

Thank you, Buckley Brion McGuire & Morris, LLP, for standing alongside LASP in advancing equal justice and helping ensure that access to legal help remains within reach for those who need it most.

The Pennsylvania Department of Human Services (PA DHS) today announced the opening of 2026-27 Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) season, with applications being accepted now through April 23, 2027.

“Pennsylvanians need to be able to heat their homes and keep themselves and their families warm through the winter, and LIHEAP helps hundreds of thousands of Pennsylvanians each year stay safe and healthy during the coldest months of the year,” said PA DHS Secretary Dr. Val Arkoosh. “Anyone who may need help with heating costs and keeping their home safe through this winter should apply for LIHEAP as soon as possible.”

“LIHEAP is one of the strongest tools we have to help Pennsylvania families stay warm and manage their energy bills,” said Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC) Chairman Steve DeFrank. “We encourage anyone who may be struggling to apply early and also reach out to their utilities. When families use LIHEAP together with the many options available through utility assistance programs, they have a clearer path to staying safe and connected.”
