Abstract: Data collection is essential to the collection of information related to the provision of services and overall performance of the Administration for Community (ACL) legal assistance programs under Section 420 - Demonstration and Support Projects for Legal Assistance for Older Individuals - of the Older Americans Act (OAA). Section 420(a) (1) is intended to create a national legal assistance support system to assist States and area agencies on aging in providing, developing, or supporting legal assistance for older individuals. ACL contracts with the National Center on Law and Elder Rights (NCLER), to provide the required services. Through the NCLER contract, ACL provides aging, disability, and related legal professionals with training and complex case consultations and support for demonstration projects regarding contractually identified priority legal topics. ACL proposes to ask legal and aging/disability providers, who request Legal Training, Case Consultation or Technical Assistance, a series of basic questions related to service requests and follow-up surveys in order to properly assess resource support needs, audience targeting, participant satisfaction, and outcomes of the training and technical assistance delivered.
