Kansas Department for Children and Families: Report Adult Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation

Adult Protective Services works with other local agencies to help adults at risk. These adults may be unable to protect themselves from harm. If you suspect an adult might be at risk, report your concerns by calling the Kansas Protection Report Center at the phone number listed above.

What to Report?
Include the name and address of the adult suspected of being abused, neglected, exploited or financially abused. Please include your name and contact information, although DCF does accept anonymous reports. Give information about the nature of the concern.

Please be as specific as possible about the abuse, neglect, exploitation or fiduciary abuse allegation, including whether you think the adult is in immediate danger. Include what you have seen, how long you believe the abuse has been occurring, when you last saw the adult and who the alleged perpetrator is.

Report any information you think might be helpful in the investigation and protection of the adult. This includes addresses, telephone numbers and directions to the home(s) of relatives, caretakers, the alleged perpetrator(s) and potential risk factors for the adult or social worker such as violence, guns, dogs, etc.
