This section has a selected list of training materials focusing on elder abuse, including domestic violence and sexual abuse in later life. For a selection of training videos on elder abuse, see the NCALL video library.

The Training and Services to End Abuse in Later Life Program creates a unique opportunity for providing or enhancing training and services to address elder abuse, neglect, and exploitation, including domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking, involving victims who are 50 years of age or older. The National Clearinghouse on Abuse in Later Life (NCALL) is the technical assistance provider for the OVW Abuse in Later Life program.  For more information about the OVW Abuse in Later Life program, you may also contact NCALL staff.


A Mother Never Gives Up Hope: Older Mothers and Abusive Adult Sons (2009) from the National Clearinghouse on Abuse in Later Life shares the candid and powerful stories of Ruth, Lova, Anne, and Rita - four women who are dealing with abuse at the hands of an adult son. In their own words, they work through the emotions and pain of experiencing abuse from their sons, the life-changing impact it makes on them as a person, and how it affects their mother-son relationships.
