SHIBA & Senior Rights & Assistance

From the SL-LFP Senior Center
SHIBA, Senior Rights and Assistance is a statewide network of trained volunteers who educate, assist and advocate for seniors about their rights and options regarding health insurance and health care access so they can more informed choices.

SRA trains volunteers to assist seniors with consumer issues, elder abuse/crimes, end-of-life planning, estate planning, powers of attorney, guardianship, and social security.

Volunteers can also make referrals on homeowners concerns, elder law clinics, and landlord-tenant rights.

At this time the Shoreline - Lake Forest Park Senior Center does not have a representative available at the Center, but anyone in need of assistance or interested in volunteering can call Senior Services downtown at 206-448-5720.
