Interagency Collaboration: How the Department of Justice is Forging Partnerships with Adult Protective Service Programs
This session details how the Department of Justice is working to improve the lives of Adult Protective Services (APS) clients by more vigorously holding offenders accountable while to the extent possible restoring safety and dignity to victims. In October of 2017, President Trump signed into law the Elder Abuse Prevention and Prosecution Act. As part of EAPPA, the Elder Justice Initiative has been engaged in implementing the contours of this law, including training for newly appointed Elder Justice Coordinators (EJCs). This session will highlight existing successful partnerships from around the country. The different stages of collaboration, and the benefits and challenges of working with community partnerships will be emphasized. In addition, we will explore other efforts undertaken by the Department of Justice, including grants and other resources available to state and local partners, as well as, its enforcement efforts to address crime against older adults in the United States.
