Senior Law Day Collaborative

Senior Law Day made a fantastic return to the Westchester County Center last week, welcoming nearly 500 attendees through 19 workshops, informational tables, and 300 one-on-one consultations with professionals. Thank you to the Westchester County Government, our partners (including Westchester Library System), and over 60 volunteers from the elder law, personal finance, and elder care fields, (too numerous to tag here 🙏 ). Stay tuned for an upcoming Post where we thank our sponsors. We look forward to more programs this fall and into 2025.

Thanks to our volunteer attorneys and other professionals, we completed 35 online consultations yesterday. These enabled Westchester residents to get pointed in the right direction regarding Elder Law and related areas. Thank you Sara Keating Kylan Johnson Kadeen Wong, Esq. Shervaun Clark Deborah Farber-Kaiser Bill Fishman, Denise Kuhbier MS, RN, LNHA, CCM Marc Rienas and Megan Brown. https://lnkd.in/e4eMnZFP

Thanks to our many volunteers, we are offering one-on-one consultations via Zoom on December 5th from 10 AM - Noon. This is a great way for your clients, constituents, or friends to get pointed in the right direction regarding a legal, financial or care issue. Folks can go to https://lnkd.in/encPDzwQ any time on December 4th to sign up for a 15-minute slot. Please pass along.  

Thank you again to our sponsors of last week's Senior Law Day. Westchester County did a fabulous job of creating large digital displays for gold, silver, and bronze sponsors seen by the 500 people in attendance at the recently renovated County Center. For others able to consider sponsoring in the future, stay tuned for Senior Law Day 2024! #westchesterny
