EL PASO-Purple is the color to wear to bring awareness for preventing the abuse/neglect of elderly and disabled adults in our community.
A "GO PURPLE DAY" rally was held downtown on Friday May 4, 2012 to get the public involved in stopping this form of abuse.
Adult Protective Services investigated nearly 4,000 cases of neglect and abuse last year in El Paso.
To report an abuse, neglect or an exploitation, call the Texas Abuse Hotline: 1800-252-5400
