Iowa Adult Protective Services

Elder Abuse & Protection · Iowa · Free

Report suspected elder abuse in Iowa. Find your state APS via NAPSA. 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. Adult guardianship can be appointed by a court when capacity is gone; emergency guardianship is faster but temporary. Open at no cost to Iowa seniors and the families supporting them.
