NCEA Partners
The National Center on Elder Abuse (NCEA) operates as a unique, multi-disciplinary consortium of equal partners with expertise in elder abuse, neglect, and exploitation. Over the years, the NCEA collaborators have worked towards helping the nation better address and respond to elder abuse, neglect, and exploitation. Not only have the NCEA collaborators come from various professional fields, the NCEA has proven a valuable resource to many professionals working in some way with older victims of elder mistreatment, including: adult protective services; national, state, and local aging networks; law enforcement; health care professionals; domestic violence networks; and others.
AoA is proud of the organizations that have collaborated in making the NCEA the foremost federal source of information on elder mistreatment, and dedicates this “Partners” section to recognizing their contributions and their on-going commitment to protecting our most vulnerable citizens.
A national resource center is not born overnight. There are countless hours invested in developing and organizing materials and website content, and responding to inquiries, providing training and technical assistance. AoA thanks each of the NCEA collaborators for their work, and for the development of the content of this website. AoA looks forward to continued collaboration in the years ahead with all of the partners that have contributed to the success of the NCEA.
