Our Funding

CCSLS is a recipient of funds from the State Bar of California including Interest on Lawyers’ Trust Accounts and Equal Access Funds. CCSLS was recently awarded a Bank Grant administered by the Legal Services Trust Fund to support its work protecting homeowners and their equity. Other support is provided by the Area Agency on Aging, Community Development Block Grants from the Contra Costa County Consortium, the Cities of Antioch, Pittsburg and Walnut Creek. CCSLS is part of the county-wide collaboration to combat elder abuse funded by Victims of Crime Acts Funds (California Office of Emergency Services XC grant).

Thanks to the efforts of Alan Plutzik and Jennifer Rosenburg of Bramson, Plutzik, Mahler & Birkhauser, LLP, CCSLS received a Cy Pres award that will allow us to expand and improve our services to Contra Costa seniors. This is the second Cy Pres CCSLS has received from the Bramson firm for which we are very grateful. If you or your firm would like to discuss the possibility of designating CCSLS as a recipient of a Cy Pres award, please contact Verna Haas, Executive Director, for further information.
