FREE TO ALL Everyone is eligible for ILAO’s help—there are no income or other eligibility requirements. There is no paywall, or demand that users surrender their personal information to gain access. Because of this, the people who ILAO serves may choose to remain anonymous, giving them a greater sense of control over their lives, at a time when they need it most.
