Members
of our community’s
elderly population may need special assistance with managing
and recovering from the effects of crime. Often the elderly
are living alone, living on fixed incomes, and living with
limiting medical conditions.
Northeast Victim Service
is sensitive to the special needs of the elderly in Northeast
Philadelphia, and our agency’s assistance for the victims
of crime is complemented by other State or local non-profit
agencies.
