Report elder or dependent adult abuse

Find community Adult Protective Services contacts, reporting options and after-hours referrals.

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.

Shared CDSS programme description

CDSS describes APS help for adults 60+ and dependent adults 18–59 with disabilities who cannot meet their needs or experience abuse, neglect or exploitation. This is the programme description, not a complete statement of mandated-reporting legal definitions.

Checked October 15, 2026

Official guidance (opens in a new tab)
Each California County has an Adult Protective Services (APS) agency to help elder adults (60 years and older) and dependent adults (18-59 who are disabled), when these adults are unable to meet their own needs, or are victims of abuse, neglect or exploitation. County APS agencies investigate reports of abuse of elders and dependent adults who live in private homes, apartments, hotels, hospitals, or who are, or soon will be, experiencing homelessness.
Shared CDSS referral guidance — facility setting

Abuse in long-term care and the other facilities listed by CDSS has an ombudsman route. Community APS, facility complaints and immediate emergencies have different channels.

Checked October 15, 2026

Official guidance (opens in a new tab)
The OSLTCO, which is administered by the California Department of Aging (CDA) has jurisdiction for investigating reports of abuse that occur in nursing homes, residential care facilities for the elderly, adult residential facilities, intermediate care facilities, adult day health care facilities, and adult day programs.
