About The Elder Rights Training Project
The National Elder Rights Training Project provides training on a wide range of law and aging topics to legal services providers and members of the Aging Services Network nationwide. Priority on-site training is offered to:
- States and partnering entities involved in the Administration on Aging’s Model Approaches to
Statewide Legal Assistance Systems demonstration grants. This program is designed to create well
integrated legal and aging service delivery systems that target scarce resources to older adults in the
greatest social or economic need.
- Aging and Disability Resource Centers (ADRC) and Area Agency on Aging (AAA) staff involved in
identifying and assisting older persons facing legal challenges to their independence and financial
security.
Preference will be given to organizations that can commit to:
- Marketing or publicizing the training event to the audience(s) targeted for the specific training;
- Inviting a diverse range of aging and legal professionals;
- Securing a space for the training;
- Registering participants;
- Providing or arranging for the rental of audio-visual or other training equipment; and
- Collecting evaluation forms or other data.
As part of the project, the National Consumer Law Center (NCLC) organizes and facilitates online webinars on topics relevant to the elder law community. A full listing of recorded webinars, along with a schedule of upcoming online events, is available on the National Consumer Law Center's Elder Rights Training Project page.
