Top 5 reasons why you should attend the 2013 National Aging and Law Institute:

1. Hear from the top leaders of CMS, including Jonathan Blum, Deputy Administrator and Director of the Center for Medicare, and Cindy Mann, JD, Director of the Center for Medicaid and CHIP Services, about their vision for Medicare and Medicaid.

2. Engage with a prominent member of the Senate on the aging legislative agenda.

3. Learn how the Affordable Care Act will change the way you advise your older and special needs clients.

4. Ethically enhance your interviewing skills and understand the ethical issues of communicating with non-clients — learn from experts in Elder and Special Needs Law.

5. Recharge your batteries and recall the reasons you chose Elder and Special Needs advocacy by networking and sharing valuable solutions with others.

Advocacy for elders and persons with disabilities is at a tipping point today — making aging in place according

to one’s own terms possible in caring communities or giving in to an unbalanced world of haves and have nots.

You can’t afford to miss the Institute. You’ll find the knowledge, skills, and moral support needed to make the

former a reality. — Charles P. Sabatino, 2013 NALI Co-Chair


Do the Elder and Special Needs Law and Aging Rights Communities have the advocacy skills to ensure our clients will age in a caring community?Making a caring community a reality for our clients is a formi-dable task at a time when health and long-term care systems are out of reach for many, public benefits programs face budget cuts, and the population is aging rapidly. The 2013 National Aging and Law Institute will provide you with the multidisciplinary skills and knowledge to ensure you can

meet your clients’ and communities’ needs holistically. This year’s Institute is a unique educational event that blends advanced substantive programming for attorneys both in private practice and in non-profit public interest practice, as well as for other non-attorney advocates in the aging network. Plan to join your peers to learn, net-work, and engage with leading experts

in the field. With more than 25 high-quality, in-depth sessions, there is something for everyone.
