As the population ages, more of the population in need of legal assistance will be older adults. Join us for an interactive discussion about how legal services can promote elder rights and help low-income older adults overcome the barriers they face. Learn about training and technical assistance available through the National Center on Law and Elder Rights, and share best practices for serving low-income older adults.
