Seniors, Check Out North Andover TRIAD

The following was submitted by the North Andover Senior Center.

The North Andover TRIAD is a community safety initiative that focuses on empowering, educating and improving the safety, security and peace of mind of our senior population.

The goal of TRIAD is to reduce criminal activity which targets our senior community, alleviate senior’s fear of victimization, build confidence and improve the quality of their life, and enhance the delivery of law enforcement services to the senior population.

TRIAD consists of a partnership which involves the Sheriff  & District Attorney, the Police and Fire Chief, the Council on Aging and supportive services in each community.  Individual communities establish their own TRIAD Council that assesses and addresses the specific needs particular to their senior community.  The TRIAD Council is presided over by a chairperson, vice chairperson and secretary who are active seniors in the community.
