New Web-Based Resource for Elders and Elder Law Attorneys

The Administration on Aging, along with a number of non-profit organizations, has created a new legal resource web site that is available to consumers, attorneys and advocates alike.  It is a good starting point for anyone researching the legal rights and benefits of older Amercians.  You can reach the new site by clicking http://www.nlrc.aoa.gov/NLRC/index.aspx:  Called the National Legal Resource Center (NLRC), the new project is a collaboration with:

• The American Bar Association Commission on Law and Aging
• The Center for Elder Rights Advocacy
• The Center for Social Gerontology
• The National Consumer Law Center
• The National Senior Citizens Law Center
