SECURING
SENIORS
Across the nation, senior citizens are all too often the victims
of physical or emotional abuse, financial exploitation, or
neglect. Unscrupulous individuals who perpetrate a variety
of senior abuse and fraud often target the elderly and sadly,
seniors are often victimized by members of their own families who
are responsible for their care.

VICTIMS'
COMPENSATION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
On July 31, 2009 the revamped Delaware Victims' Compensation
Assistance Program (VCAP) became part of the Attorney General's
Office. Formerly called the Violent Crimes Compensation
Board, VCAP offers a streamlined compensation process for innocent
victims of crime and provides local access to victim compensation
services through the Attorney General's offices in Wilmington, Dover,
and Georgetown. In addition, VCAP services complement the
Attorney General's existing Victim/Witness Services Program.
