Adult Protective Services (APS) is a state-mandated case
management program that arranges for services and support for physically and/or
mentally impaired adults who are at risk of harm. APS seeks to promptly resolve
the risks faced by eligible clients with service plans that will enable these
individuals to live independently and safely within their homes and 
communities. Prospective clients may be referred by anyone.
APS
is available to persons 18 years of age and older without regard to income,
who:
- Are mentally and/or physically impaired; and
- Due to these impairments, are unable to manage their
own resources, carry out the activities of daily living, or protect themselves
from abuse, neglect, exploitation or other hazardous situations without
assistance from others; and
- Have no one available who is willing and able to assist them responsibly
There is an APS office in each borough.
