We provide specially tailored services to the elderly victims of crime that include assistance with emotional, financial and case management needs. As our longevity increases, there is a growing need to provide senior-specific services to ensure their safety and continuation of quality of life.
The Elder Specialist works closely with Denver’s Forensic Collaborative for At-Risk Adults and Justice for Older Adults Community Collaborative, providing accessibility to community agencies.
As part of the The Center for Trauma and Resilience elder program, we offer the Elder Care Manager Program that provides emotional assistance and companionship via phone or in-home.
We offer support groups for seniors:

•Emotional and social support
•Encouragement in dealing with specific life situations
•Stress management and self-care activities
•Support through loss and grief
•Community resources
