DOJ Elder Justice Initiative

Elder Abuse & Protection · Kentucky · 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. Online and phone reporting are both available; for life-threatening situations, call 911 first. Self-neglect (refusing food, hygiene, medical care) is the most common form of "abuse" — APS handles it when capacity is in question. Free of charge — no eligibility paperwork required to call or browse.
