Getting Help After Discovering Abuse in a CILA or Group Home

What drives abuse in group homes? Too often it starts with poor staffing and oversight. These homes are meant to provide safe, supportive environments for adults with disabilities.

But when facilities fail to properly train staff, conduct background checks, or ensure that there’s a staff that’s adequate in both numbers and supervision, residents are left vulnerable to neglect, mistreatment, and even. Outright abuse often at the hands of those entrusted to care for them.

Liability doesn’t just fall on the individual who commits the abuse. The facility owner and management all share responsibility for failing to protect residents.

At Levin and Perconti, we fight for accountability and justice. If you suspect abuse in a group home or CILA, don’t stay silent. Reach out. We’re here to help.
