About ACE

The ACE (Advocates for Conserved Elders) project is a program developed by WISE & Healthy Aging in conjunction with the Los Angeles Superior Court Probate Division. Trained volunteers visit residents at least twice monthly and provide the conservatee with companionship, socialization, and serves as a special advocate to report signs of abuse or neglect.

Volunteer for ACE

What does an ACE volunteer do? Be a friend! Visit a conservatee twice a month in a residential care facility -- monitor the resident's care, well-being, health and safety. Most of all, establish a supportive relationship with the conservatee!
