Describes a nationwide survey of domestic violence shelters that examined special programming for older battered women, in which 40+% of the 428 respondents (program directors) had sheltered at least one woman age 60+ during the previous year, & 61 reported offering special programming for older women, primarily outreach or individual interventions. A majority provided education about domestic violence to adult protective services staff & senior centers, but only 22% presented information to aging agency staff. Interactions between domestic violence & service providers for the aged are critical because they have clients in common.
