ReAct Adult Protection Program
May’s Provincial Learning Event featured Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH) and their ReAct Program. VCH is a designated agency responsible for investigating situations of abuse, neglect and self-neglect of adults who are unable to seek support and assistance on their own. The ReAct Program receives reports, provides consultation and coordinates responses to abused, neglected and self-neglected adults so cannot seek support and assistance on their own.
First Nations ReAct provides an understanding of the complex dynamics of abuse, neglect and self-neglect in First Nations communities.
