The County that puts SENIORS first
"The Madison County TRIAD’s mission is to enhance the quality of life and safety for senior citizens through information and resources provided by law enforcement and service providers."
TRIAD is a three - way commitment among the Sheriff’s Office, senior citizens and senior service providers. They agree to work together to reduce the criminal victimization of the elderly and enhance the delivery of law enforcement services to older persons. A major purpose of a TRIAD is to develop, expand and implement effective crime prevention and education programs for older community members. Activities center on both pre - victimization (preventive) and post - victimization (victim / witness assistance) aspects.
TRIAD works to improve the quality of life for seniors. By providing an opportunity for the exchange of information between law enforcement and older persons, Triad can also focus on reducing unwarranted fear of crime.
