WHY DO YOU WORK AT SENIORLAW CENTER?
I am so excited to work for an organization committed to turning the tide towards humanity and justice for all. The SeniorLAW Center has been at the forefront of developing innovative programs and leading the charge on access to justice for older Philadelphians and Pennsylvanians. Through my work at the SeniorLAW Center I honor the wisdom of our community’s elders and work to ensure that they have access to the justice they deserve.
