Free Wills Clinic for Veterans Who Live in NYC
The Veterans Assistance
Project (VAP) and the Elderlaw Project (ELP) at the City Bar Justice
Center (the not-for-profit section of the New York City Bar Association)
has recently initiated wills clinics for Veterans. The program
provides free estate planning assistance for eligible Veterans. The next clinic is scheduled for Wednesday, November 9, 2016 at 2:00p.m. in midtown Manhattan.
This
service is available to low- to moderate-income Veterans who reside in
NYC and are interested in preparing any of the following documents at no cost:
· Last Will and Testament –
Allows you to leave instructions about how your property should be
distributed after your death. It also allows people with responsibility
for minor children to name a guardian to care for them.
· Health Care Proxy –
Allows you to choose someone (your ‘Agent’) to make medical decisions
on your behalf if your condition prevents you from communicating your
wishes to your doctor. Your Agent will speak for you.
· Living Will –
If your condition is such that there is no hope of recovery, this
document allows you to state your wishes about life sustaining treatment
(e.g. breathing tubes, feeding tubes, etc).
· Power of Attorney – Allows you to name an Agent to handle your non-medical matters, e.g. banking, housing decisions and taxes.
· Disposition of Remains document – Allows you to name an Agent to handle your funeral and burial arrangements.
Veterans interested in attending the clinic should contact us to check eligibility by calling: 212-382-4743.
If eligible, the Veteran will be paired up with an attorney at the clinic who will prepare the document(s) free of cost.

VA Retail Immunization Care Coordination Program – Flu Shots
VA Retail Immunization Care Coordination Program – Flu Shots
VA and Walgreens are national partners, providing no-cost flu shots to enrolled Veterans of the VA health care system. From August 1, 2015 to March 31, 2016, enrolled Veteran patients nationwide have the option of getting their flu shot at any of Walgreens’ 8,000 locations in addition to their local VA health care facilities. Walgreens has the capability to electronically send vaccination information to the VA electronic health record (EHR). The VA-Walgreens national partnership is part of VA’s eHealth Exchange project. Last year’s national pilot program ensured that many Veterans got their no-cost flu shot at their local Walgreens, satisfying their wellness reminder because they either found it more convenient or did not have a scheduled appointment at a local VA health care facility.
