RICHMOND, Va. -- Attorney General Jones announced the distribution of $75,000 to 30 TRIAD chapters across the state, as part of the 2026-2027 TRIAD grant. Each year, chartered TRIAD chapters can apply for grants from the Office of the Attorney General to support their local programs. TRIAD is a cooperative effort of law enforcement agencies, senior citizens, and senior organizations to share information on how seniors can avoid becoming victims of crime and enhance the safety and quality of their lives.
“Virginians everywhere continue to experience an increasingly complex threat environment as it relates to scams and fraud, and our seniors are especially vulnerable to these attacks. TRIAD organizations across the Commonwealth play an integral role in educating Virginians on scams and working hand-in-hand with law enforcement agencies and nonprofit organizations to stop them,” said Attorney General Jay Jones. “Supporting TRIAD chapters in their efforts to better awareness, spot trends, and respond to community concerns in real time is how we protect consumers on the ground-level. I’m proud of each of the grantees announced today and look forward to making communities safer with their partnership.”
TRIAD grant funds go to support critical community-level efforts administered by local TRIAD chapters, including:
