This program provides services to vulnerable individuals including frail, elderly and disabled individuals. These
individuals may be experiencing difficulty protecting themselves and obtaining basic needs of food, shelter, clothing
and/or medical care.
Reports of vulnerable adults are received and investigated and services are provided as needed. Services are
provided with a goal of eliminating neglect, abuse and exploitation of vulnerable individuals. Services are focused
on safety and well-being and may include guardianships, residential placement, home health services or adult
daycare/respite care.
Agency staff collaborates with home health care providers, public health,
law enforcement agencies and other providers of services to the senior and disabled populations.
