Report adult abuse & neglect

Find county Adult Protective Services, reporting contacts and separate after-hours options.

Before you start

For immediate danger, call 911. For suspected abuse of an older or dependent adult in the community, use the county’s APS reporting instructions.
The CDSS statewide line, 1-833-401-0832, routes by your five-digit ZIP code 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Local office and after-hours contacts can differ.
Nursing homes and other long-term care settings have an ombudsman route. Reporting forms and legal duties depend on the reporter and setting; an online form may not be an immediate-response channel.
Santa Barbara’s local phone remains unverified in the captured pages. Use the cited statewide ZIP routing line while checking the official county instructions.
