STAGES Project Mission:
Futures Without Violence is dedicated to developing and implementing innovative strategies to prevent and address elder abuse beyond the traditional legal system. Through the STAGES project, we aim to promote restorative justice, economic justice, legal system alternatives, and equitable community partnerships, fostering a safer and more supportive environment for older adults.
