On our Elder Abuse page, we:
- Revised What is older people abuse, also known as elder abuse? to reflect the updated definition of older person abuse as defined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and to update the link to its page. Spanish coming soon!
- Updated the link to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Who is considered an “older adult?”, What factors put older adults at risk of being abused?, and How common is it for men to be abused by an intimate partner?
We added 15 new crimes to our Selected South Carolina Statutes page related to offenses against the person, offenses against minors and children, and unlawful communication. We also added them to our Crimes page in the list of possible crimes in South Carolina that the abuser may have committed. Added in English; Spanish coming soon!
We created a new question in our South Carolina Custody section called If my child was conceived through rape, can the offender’s rights be terminated? Spanish translation coming soon. We also added a related statute to our Selected South Carolina Statutes page.
In our Delaware Custody section, we created the new subsection Steps to file for custody to reorganize the steps into six separate questions, making it easier for users to find the information they need.
