How do I report Child/Elder Abuse?

Reporting Abuse

Adult Protective Services (Elderly / Adult Victims) 916-874-9377

Elder [65 years old +] and dependent adult [18 -64] abuse includes: Physical abuse (assault/battery, constraint or deprivation, sexual assault, chemical restraint, and over or under medication), neglect (including self-neglect), financial abuse, abandonment, isolation, abduction, and psychological or verbal abuse.

Adult Protective Services (APS) is a state mandated program dedicated to helping elders (60 years and older) and dependent adults (18-59 who are disabled) when these adults are unable to meet their own needs, or are victims of abuse, neglect or exploitation. APS investigates reports of abuse of elders and dependent adults who live in private homes, apartments, hotels or hospitals. ​
