Calling on adult protective services
Posted: Thu Nov 02, 2017 10:03 am
Hi, I am writing on behalf of my parents (one with early dementia and one with diabetes, cataracts, congestive heart failure and a defibrillator) who are currently going through a world of troubles due to the family recently finding out my brother (their caregiver and person in charge of their financials) has been using heroin. He cleaned my parents out, even with protective services involved, and has not paid their rent since last September among other things.
As you can imagine this is a large debt and it does not look good for my parents at this time. Since all of this has come to a head my brother is currently in treatment at a VA rehab and I have now taken on the responsibilities and am at a loss and am not really sure what to do.
I have been in contact with adult protective services and legal aid but what everything boils down to is money. I am praying I can find some way to help my parents keep their apartment. Please respond at your earliest convenience so we can figure out if my parents qualify for any of your services or if you can lead me in the right direction. Thank you in advance for your time.
