MENLO PARK, Calif. – Facebook announced today it is expanding its Community Help feature. This expansion aims to connect more people facing legal challenges with support. The company partners with legal aid groups across the country.

The expanded program focuses on common legal problems. These problems include housing issues, family matters, and immigration questions. People can now find information and resources more easily. They can also connect directly with local legal aid organizations through Facebook.

New partners include several national legal assistance networks. These groups offer free or low-cost legal help. Facebook wants to make these services easier to access. Many people struggle to find affordable legal advice. This effort tries to bridge that gap.

The service is available now to Facebook users in the United States. Users can visit the Community Help section. They can search for legal aid resources based on their location. They can also find information on specific legal topics.
