The Senior Citizens Law Project, based in Las Vegas, NV, operates as the Southern Nevada Senior Law Program (SLP), offering no-cost legal services to individuals aged 60 and above in the Southern Nevada region. Established in 1978 under the Older Americans Act, SLP transitioned into a 501(c)(3) non-profit in 2012, receiving funding from various sources including grants and community contributions.
With a mission to empower seniors through legal assistance, SLP serves over 125,000 vulnerable seniors, aiding them in areas such as estate planning, evictions, health care power of attorney, elder exploitation, consumer assistance, and government benefits. Clients are not required to meet income qualifications and are supported by a dedicated team of legal professionals.
Moreover, SLP runs the Senior Advocates Pro Bono Program, encouraging volunteer attorneys to support the organization in serving more seniors promptly. This initiative allows for the completion of estate planning documents and offers ongoing CLE opportunities for attorney volunteers, ensuring the program's growth and sustainability.
