CREVAA
In-home support for elder and vulnerable adult crime victims
Resource One works with CREVAA advocates, law enforcement, and Adult Protective Services to provide home care that helps victims recover safely in their own homes.
Safety after elder abuse, financial exploitation, or neglect rarely ends at the crisis. Getting professional in-home help — so the victim can stay home instead of moving to a facility — often determines whether recovery actually happens.

Common questions about CREVAA
I'm a CREVAA advocate. How do I refer a client?
Call the office directly — Memphis (901) 751-7466 or Jackson (731) 554-0841 — and let them know the referral is CREVAA-related. We fast-track intake and coordinate with your advocacy team, APS, and legal support.
Who pays for the home care?
Funding depends on the victim's situation. VOCA (Victims of Crime Act) funds are sometimes available through the AAAD. TennCare CHOICES, OPTIONS, and private pay all remain open. We coordinate billing so the funding source doesn't delay care.
What counties do you cover for CREVAA referrals?
Memphis office: Shelby, Tipton, and Fayette. Jackson office: Madison and 17 surrounding West TN counties. CREVAA operates statewide, so if a victim is outside our area we'll help connect them with another CREVAA-approved provider.
How do you handle ongoing safety risk in the home?
Caregivers are trained to recognize signs of ongoing abuse, exploitation, or unsafe home conditions and to report concerns appropriately — to APS, the CREVAA advocate, or law enforcement, per the coordinating team's protocol.
Is CREVAA only for physical abuse victims?
No. CREVAA covers elder and vulnerable adult victims of any crime — physical abuse, financial exploitation, neglect, abandonment. In-home care is often critical for financial exploitation victims who lost caregiving support along with their assets.
