Adult Protective Services

Our staff also provides services to stop the exploitation and neglect of the elderly. If you know someone who is age 60 or over and is in need of services, we are the first point of contact. After assessing the situation, we will refer to community resources or work further with the adult.

We do not provide homemaker services, however, the GMN Tri County, Inc. does. Please call 740-732-2388 for more information.
