Legal Aid Support & Monthly Meetings
NCLC hosts monthly meetings for legal aid advocates who are interested in learning more about student loan law, currently handle student loan cases, or want to stay up to date on the latest student loan news.

Student Loans Listserv
This listserv discusses aspects of the student loan system and best practices for providing legal services for student loan borrowers. Although there is no censoring of the issues to be discussed, this group generally focuses on student loan issues that affect low-income borrowers. Frequent topics within this group include: predatory schools, student loan servicer misconduct, administrative loan discharges, bankruptcy and collection practices.
