​Launch of National Center for State and Tribal Elder Justice Coalitions

Under a grant from the U.S. Department of Justice, Office for Victims of Crime (OVC), Lifespan of Greater Rochester is administering the Center, which provides training, technical assistance, and resources for new and existing state and tribal coalitions. The Center operates in partnership with the Ohio Coalition for Adult Protective Services; the Minnesota Elder Justice Center; Jacque Gray, PhD (Native American Specialist); and the New York City Elder Abuse Center. It also collaborates with NNSEJC to promote elder justice nationwide.

The Center provides sub-grants to not-for-profit organizations and federally recognized Native American tribes to establish new coalitions or enhance the work of existing groups
