Benefits Law Center (BLC) Seeks Paralegal
April 18, 2022 | Alison Pagan

Benefits Law Center (BLC) seeks a seasoned paralegal to join our team and our mission, working
with people who live with disabilities and are fighting for their economic and medical security. As a
champion of BLC’s core values of centering clients, dignity for all, and integrity in community, BLC
paralegals work collaboratively to manage maintain and execute BLC intake processes, and support
the casework of BLC.

BLC is a specialty civil legal aid organization with a staff of ten people dedicated to economic
justice. We further our mission through targeted community lawyering projects that help people
obtain and maintain access to Social Security benefits. BLC paralegals co-coordinate BLC’s intake of
new clients, answering phones, conducting intakes, scheduling appointments, processing mail, and
assisting attorneys with requesting medical evidence and submitting/receiving materials from Social
Security.

We are in the final year of our existing strategic plan which is focused on growing the capacity of
BLC to deliver on our mission through (1) equity and inclusion, (2) increased stewardship and
relationship building, (3) strengthening our communication strategies, and (4) growing our volunteer
program.
