RISE is one of the first evidence-based programs, worldwide, dedicated to the prevention and response of elder abuse and self-neglect in the community. We work with cases involving older adults who are at risk of or experiencing elder abused or self-neglect. To date, RISE has worked with nearly 1,400 cases, and we have expanded into several locations across North America that are in various stages of implementation. If you are interested in learning more about RISE or how RISE may be adapted and integrated into your community, click the button below.
