    Grey Law was founded in 1979 by volunteers, and provides year-round free assistance to individuals and non-profit groups who otherwise have limited access to legal services. The goal is to help clients resolve any legal issues, while also working to preserve their independence, hope, and dignity. Grey Law assists clients with government benefits such as Social Security, and 551 Medicare and Medi-Cal. They also offer “long-term care” counseling related to a spouse or family member entering a nursing home. Grey Law assists with consumer matters, powers of attorney, and advanced healthcare directives. 


    The Ventura County Area Agency on Aging, an agency of the County of Ventura, is the principal agency in Ventura County charged with the responsibility to promote the development and implementation of a comprehensive coordinated system of care that enables older individuals, people with disabilities, and their caregivers to live in a community-based setting and to advocate for the needs of those 60 years of age and older in the county, providing leadership and promoting citizen involvement in the planning process as well as in the delivery of services.
