Supporting Prosecutors in the Fight Against Elder Abuse

Elder abuse is a growing concern across the country, with older adults increasingly becoming targets of neglect, exploitation, and violence. Prosecutors play a critical role in seeking justice for these vulnerable victims. The NDAA Elder Justice Initiative provides prosecutors with essential resources, technical assistance, and training to support their work in identifying, investigating, and prosecuting elder abuse cases.

This initiative brings together leading experts, legal tools, and educational materials to ensure prosecutors have the knowledge and support needed to hold offenders accountable while prioritizing victim safety. Whether you need case-specific guidance, connections to other prosecutors, or access to cutting-edge research, our initiative is designed to enhance your ability to effectively handle elder abuse cases.
