Eighteen New York
City Jewish under-
graduate students are
providing a variety of
forms ofparalegal help to
• elderly Jews in the West
Bronx
baffled
by
bureaucratic hurdles be-
tween them and govern-
ment benefits, the Jewish
Association for College
Youth has reported.
Michael. Yoeli, a third-
year law student at
Brooklyn Law School,
coordinator of the. Stu-
dent Lay Advocacy Pro-
ject, said the West Bronx
was chosen because of its
large concentration of el-
derly poor Jews, its net-
work of Federation of
Jewish Philanthropies
agencies and senior cen-
ters available as bases for
the project, and its rela-
tive accessibility to col-
lege campuses in the city.
JACY is a subvention
agency of the federation.
The 18 undergraduates
are working in eight
senior centers in the
Bronx to help_ elderly
Jews with problems in
such areas as welfare,
Medicaid, Medicare, food
stamps, rent controls and
rent increase exemp-
tions, and problems with
landlords. The project
began last. Oct. 18 and
each of the 18 students is
committed to serve until
June. A spokesman said
those who wish to serve in
the second year will have
to re-apply, adding that
the program will continue
during the 1977-78 year.
The students were cho-
sen from among volun-
teers by an advisory com-
mittee and by Yoeli and
the director of the VISTA
corps, another JACY pro-
ject. Some are pre-legal
students and some are lib-
eral arts majors. Each stu-
dent works a minimum of
eight hours a week on the
project, the exact time
being dependent on their
college class schedules.
Two students are assigned
to each center.
Engleman,
Joseph
JACY president, said the
students assisted more
than 50 senior citizens
during the first week of
the project.
