The Elder Justice Reauthorization and Modernization Act of 2026 aims to renew and enhance funding for programs that prevent, investigate, and prosecute elder abuse, neglect, and exploitation, thereby strengthening protections for older adults. This legislation seeks to improve the quality of care for seniors by ensuring that those working in elder care facilities are well-trained and supported. Key provisions include the establishment of grants for training nursing home workers, with states receiving funding based on their populations aged 65 and older or those with disabilities.
