How to Report in Arizona
Speak Up & Speak Out
Reporting is a crucial component of prevention. It provides immediate protection, support for victims, aids in identifying patterns and risks, and data collection to increase resource allocation and the implementation of preventative measures. If you suspect that a vulnerable adult is being abused, neglected, or exploited, it is your responsibility to report it to the appropriate authorities as soon as possible. A timely report can play a significant role in protecting the person from future harm.
