The County of Macomb was awarded a $750,000 Cooperative Agreement from the U.S. Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women under the Enhanced Training and Services to End Violence and Abuse of Women Later in Life Program (CFDA 16.528). The purpose of this four-year grant is to increase and strengthen training for law enforcement, prosecutors, and the judiciary in recognizing, investigating, and prosecuting instances of abuse, neglect, exploitation, domestic violence, and sexual assault against individuals aged 50 and older. Additionally, the grant will provide or enhance services for older victims, create or support multidisciplinary collaborative community responses, and conduct cross-training for victim service organizations, government agencies, courts, law enforcement, and nonprofits serving this population. The County of Macomb and its project partners will work to develop policies and protocols to improve the identification, investigation, prosecution, and adjudication of abuse in later life cases within their community.
