DOJ Elder Justice Initiative

Elder Abuse & Protection · Iowa · Free

US Department of Justice resources on prosecuting elder abuse and financial fraud. A starting point for any senior, family member, or neighbor who suspects something is wrong but isn't sure what to do. Anonymous reporting is allowed but limits APS's ability to follow up — leaving contact info helps the investigation. AARP's Fraud Watch Helpline and the FTC's IdentityTheft.gov are practical resources before and after a scam. Free service; donations support but never gate access.
