YOU can help our community Stand Up Against Elder Abuse
The Stand Up Against Elder Abuse campaign empowers our community to protect seniors and prevent elder abuse and neglect. Led by the Santa Barbara Elder and Dependent Adult Abuse Prevention Council and its partners, it promotes awareness through a better understanding of cultural, social and economic factors that affect elder abuse.
