The NSW Ageing and Disability Commission is an independent agency of the NSW government, established 1 July 2019.
Our role is to better protect older people and adults with disability from abuse, neglect and exploitation in their family, home and community.
The ADC fills a critical gap that was not previously addressed by other complaint and investigative bodies in NSW. We work closely with other government and non-government organisations to support information sharing and referral pathways in order to ensure any older person or adult with disability is protected from abuse, neglect and exploitation.
The former Elder Abuse Helpline and Resource Unit (EAHRU) is part of the ADC, and is now the NSW Ageing and Disability Abuse Helpline. The number has remained the same:
Phone: 1800 628 221
Monday - Friday: 9am - 4pm.
