Mission

The California Elder Justice Coalition is a multidisciplinary network of 90 agencies and individuals devoted to preventing elder abuse by alerting policy makers to obstacles that agencies and front line workers face in serving victims and advocating for reform.

What We Do

CEJC advocates for public policy and services for abused and vulnerable older adults; apprises its members, other advocates, and policy makers of developments in the field of elder justice and abuse prevention; provides webinars, presentations, workshops, and technical assistance to local, state, and national advocates; hosts summits to formulate policy recommendations; and other activities that promote the rights of older adults. Current projects include updating our comprehensive blueprint for elder justice in California and developing a toolkit and webinar series on restorative justice approaches to elder abuse prevention.
