Description

Pathlights partners with the Illinois Department on Aging (IDOA) to investigate abuse, address concerns, and help eliminate and reduce the risk of abuse. Abuse takes many forms: physical, sexual, emotional, confinement, passive neglect, self-neglect, abandonment, willful deprivation, and financial exploitation. They consult with community experts in banking, law, mental health, and social work, or experts who belong to faith-based, medical and housing organizations to discuss and resolve some of the most challenging cases of abuse.
