Eligibility: Per IC 12-10-3-2 An endangered adult is anyone over the age of 18 who is incapable by reason of mental illness, mental retardation, dementia, habitual drunkenness, excessive use of drugs, or other physical or mental incapacity of managing or directing the management of the individual’s property or providing or directing the provision of self-care and is harmed or threatened with harm as a result of: neglect, battery or exploitation. An individual is not an endangered adult solely: for the reason that the individual is being provided spiritual treatment in accordance with a recognized religious method of healing instead of specified medial treatment if the individual would not be considered to be an endangered adult if the individual were receiving the medical treatment; or on the basis of being physically unable to provide self care when appropriate care is being provided.
Additional Information: You will find more information about our program and resource links at www.tippecanoe.in.gov/prosecutor. APS also has a duty to report law that is similar to the one Child Protective Services has. It is a Class B Misdemeanor with a $1,000 fine and up to 180 days in jail for not making a report to APS or police when you have a reason to believe that another individual is an endangered adult
