NYC Budget Includes Increased Funding for Elder Abuse Services

On July 10, 2014 · 1 Comment

FY15 budgetThe new city budget for fiscal year 2015 was recently released and included increased funding for many aging initiatives, including $1 million in funding for elder abuse enhancement. The new city council and mayor increased aging services funding to include $29.5 million in baseline and additional funding for the Department for the Aging. The additional funding is a good sign for seniors as Bobbie Sackman, Director of Public Policy, Council of Senior Centers and Services, states, "On behalf of the 120,000 elder abuse victims suffering in silence across New York City, we thank City Council for the $1 million added to community-based services funded through the Department for the Aging. We appreciate that Mayor Bill de Blasio supported this funding. It is a new day in NYC government and it is time to move forward. Building a robust elder abuse network must be a priority for both sides of City Hall."
