National Center on Elder Abuse (NCEA) provides the latest information and resources on research, training, policy, and best practices on preventing and responding to elder mistreatment.
Report Abuse or Neglect
Elder abuse can happen to anyone, at anytime.
The NCEA was established by the U.S. Administration on Aging (AoA) in 1988 and granted a permanent home at AoA in the 1992 amendments made to Title II of the Older Americans Act. The NCEA is one of 27 AoA-funded Resource Centers. The AoA recognizes that as a government, as a society and as individuals, we must increase our efforts to ensure that all older adults age with dignity and honor.
