Description

Report suspected maltreatment of vulnerable adults to the Minnesota Adult Abuse Reporting Center at (844) 880-1574. Adult Protective Services (APS) receives referrals from the Minnesota Adult Abuse Reporting Center (MAARC), assesses referrals, and offers emergency and continuing protective services in appropriate situations to safeguard the safety and welfare of older adults and adults with disabilities who are also vulnerable and believed to be maltreated. Adult Protective Services (APS) offices investigate certain reports of maltreatment of vulnerable adults when the person alleged responsible is a family member, friend, Personal Care Assistant (PCA), stranger, or anyone not related to a program or service licensed by the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) or the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS), or if the adult is not able to maintain their own health or safety and has no other support.
