Greater Augusta Coalition Against Adult Abuse The Coalition sponsors educational forums and has a
table display and materials available for health fairs,
seminars, and other community events.

The Greater Augusta Coalition Against Adult Abuse
(GACAAA) was formed on November 1, 2010 when Blue
Ridge Legal Services received a 10 month mini-grant
from the Administration on Aging. The mission of GACAAA is to promote safe communities
free from abuse, neglect, and exploitation by identifying
and utilizing coalition resources through partnerships,
community action, education, and advocacy and to
address circumstances that make adults vulnerable. By
educating the community to recognize and report adult
abuse, neglect and financial exploitation, we envision a
community where vulnerable adults are valued and
treated with respect, honor and dignity and have safe,
secure lives free from abuse. We hope that
our proactive steps will help prevent further acts of
exploitation and abuse of vulnerable adults in the
community. Join our mailing list for news, issues, and

Valley Supportive Housing is hosting a pair of documentary screenings around aging and homelessness in October.

No Place to Grow Old will air at 6:30 p.m. at Trinity Episcopal Church’s McCracken Hall on Thursday, October 15. The second showing will be held at 3:00 p.m. in Central Methodist Church’s Fellowship Hall on Sunday October 25th.

Both venues can seat over 100 people.

Directed by Davey Schaupp and produced by Humans for Housing, No Place to Grow Old is an intimate portrait of the rising crisis of senior homelessness in Portland, OR. The film explores the systematic challenges and deeply personal stories of a generation aging into homelessness.

In addition to the documentary, Lydia Campbell from Valley Community Services board Valley Homeless Connection will head up a panel discussion, which will include representatives from the Valley Mission.

The Community Foundation of the Central Blue Ridge’s multimedia photojournalism project focused on housing insecurity, This is Home, will also be installed for the latter showing.
