Excerpt below:
The Trump Administration has terminated Justice in Aging’s contract to administer the National Center on Law and Elder Rights (NCLER), effectively ending a critical program that efficiently protected elder rights, promoted the well-being and independence of older adults, and helped them live free from abuse and exploitation.
NCLER, a resource center which Justice in Aging operated for nearly ten years, provided tools, specialized expertise, and trainings to assist legal and aging services providers in serving their low-income older adult clients.
