Report Elder Abuse
The Senior Center is proud to work with the Yolo County District Attorney's Elder Protection Unit, which realizes that along with the pleasures of growing older and having more leisure time, senior citizens are also vulnerable to certain crimes. Some criminals prey on seniors, who often have more assets, are more willing to trust others, and may be vulnerable because of loneliness or diminishing physical or mental faculties. Criminals may attempt to exploit that trust, steal a senior's money, or physically abuse or neglect them. To report a suspected case of Elder Abuse, contact the police at 916-617-4900 or Yolo County Adult Protective Services 24-Hour Hotline at 916-375-6239. For other questions about senior fraud contact the District Attorney at 530-666-8416.
