June is Elder and Dependent Adult Abuse Awareness Month in California and June 15th is recognized as World Elder Abuse Awareness Day (WEAAD).

 

In Siskiyou County we are proud to join this movement and raise awareness of this important issue. Please join us in keeping our community safe and well cared for by reporting any suspected abuse or self-neglect involving an elder or dependent adult to:

If you are a community organization that would like to collaborate with APS to provide services to our elder and dependent adult community members, please also reach out. It takes a village for everyone to thrive!
