For 50 years, Contra Costa Senior Legal Services (CCSLS) has helped older adults protect what matters most: their homes, their safety and their independence.
George,* an 88-year-old veteran, needed his caregiver restored to his housing.
Carol,* a 75-year-old woman with a disability, was facing eviction and the loss of her Section 8 voucher.
Linda,* 72, risked losing the mobile home that housed nine family members and represented the family’s only major financial asset.
Terry,* 69, needed protection from ongoing abuse in her own home.
*Names have been changed to protect client confidentiality.
CCSLS attorneys stepped in. Through advocacy, reasonable accommodations and legal representation, each client achieved an outcome that helped preserve their housing, safety or stability.
These stories are why we are celebrating and why the work must continue.
Join us for the CCSLS 50th Birthday Sock Hop on September 9 at Boundary Oak in Walnut Creek. Come celebrate five decades of elder justice and help power the next 50 years.
