Who We Are

The Evelyn Frank Legal Resources Program (EFLRP) is a small legal program within the New York Legal Assistance Group (NYLAG).  EFLRP has five full-time attorneys and three paralegals.  For the general public, EFLRP maintains an informational website, click here to open NY Health Access.

We also operate a hotline for advice and information about access to Medicaid eligibility, Medicaid home care, long-term care, and prescription drug benefits. The hotline provides limited direct legal services in health care- and home care access to New York City residents. 

EFLRP conducts professional Continuing Legal Education programs to teach advocacy techniques to legal and social services professionals in these areas.
