Advocacy for Seniors
The adult advocacy program also serves the special needs of the elderly. This older population faces several different kinds of abuse and neglect. Safehouse encourages citizens to report all cases involving abuse of the elderly. Often times, the elderly may not be physically or mentally able to come forward, and a special need exists to provide a helping hand to senior members of the population.

Safehouse provides advocacy and support services for the elderly, including crisis intervention and assistance with the court system. In addition, our staff works to link the elderly with appropriate social service agencies, counseling, legal services and other organizations geared to meet the needs of seniors.
