In 2016, the U.S. Department of Labor’s (DOL) published the Final Rule on the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act. The new rule includes language identifying legal aid among the supportive services considered “necessary to enable an individual to participate” in workforce activities.

In responding to public comments received on the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking and published in the Federal Register, DOL writes that one commentator “strongly supported the inclusion of legal aid services in the Department’s list of examples of supportive services, noting that legal aid can uniquely address certain barriers to employment, including access to driver’s licenses, expunging criminal records, and resolving issues with debt, credit, and housing.

Therefore, the Department has included legal aid services under § 680. 900 and made a corresponding change to the list of supportive services allowable in the youth program in § 681.
