National Center on Law & Elder Rights (NCLER)

Older adults and people of all ages with compromised immune systems are particularly at risk if exposed to COVID-19. In the current national emergency, legal assistance to older adults is critical to securing and protecting life essentials, empowering older adults, and protecting their rights. The delivery of legal services must focus on minimizing risk to legal assistance staff and their clients while balancing the ongoing legal needs of the community.

The Administration for Community Living (ACL), in partnership with NCLER, has created new resources for COVID-19.
