The mission of the Elder Justice Initiative is to support and coordinate the U.S. Department of Justice’s enforcement and programmatic efforts to combat elder abuse, neglect and financial fraud and scams that target our nation’s seniors. We engage in this work by focusing on the following mission areas:
