National Association of Triads, Inc.

The National Association of Triads is a partnership of three organizations—law enforcement, older adults, and community groups

June 15, 2019, is World Elder Abuse Awareness Day

World Elder Abuse Awareness Day (WEAAD) was launched by the International Network for the Prevention of Elder Abuse and the World Health Organization at the United Nations. The purpose of WEAAD is to provide an opportunity for communities around the world to promote a better understanding of abuse and neglect of older persons by raising awareness of the cultural, social, economic and demographic processes affecting elder abuse and neglect.

Partnership

The purpose of Triad is to promote older adult safety and to reduce the fear of crime that older adults often experience. NATI assists at the grassroots level, helping you organize your Triad and providing a clearinghouse of programs and resources that can be implemented at a community level, and training materials for law enforcement, volunteers, and community groups.

Membership

NSA now offers a special NATI membership with exclusive benefits just for you.

What Triads do:

  • Educate: by sponsoring crime prevention and public education for older adults.
  • Assist: by recruiting and training volunteers to assist sheriff's offices, police departments, and other agencies.
  • Support: by identifying community resources and providing referrals to older persons to help reduce fear and lend moral support.
  • Unite: by involving the older adult population, law enforcement, community agencies, and individuals to identify problem areas in their communities.

The NATI Logo

The NATI logo signifies the need for equal national-level participation and leadership of three organizations for a successful Triad program. Three triangles symbolize a working relationship among leaders from law enforcement, older adults, and providers. See the Triad Manual for more information.
