The investigators developed EM/PROTECT, a behavioral intervention for depressed EM (elderly mistreatment) victims, to work in synergy with EM mistreatment resolution services that provide safety planning, support services, and links to legal services. PROTECT is built on a model which postulates that chronic stress promotes dysfunction of the cognitive control (CCN) and reward networks, impairing the victims' ability to flexibly respond to the environment and limits their reward activities. PROTECT therapists work with victims to develop action plans to reduce stress, and to increase rewarding experiences. EM/PROTECT has been designed in an iterative process with community EM providers of the New York City (NYC) Department for the Aging (DFTA) to use agencies' routine PHQ-9 depression screening and referral for service. In the current study, the investigators will compare the effectiveness of EM/PROTECT with EM enriched with staff training in linking EM victims to community mental health services (EM/MH). The investigators intend to enroll 50 subjects that will participate in the study for approximately 12 weeks.

Primary | Change in Clinically Significant Depressive Symptoms as Measured by the MADRS | In all conditions, the change in clinically significant depressive symptoms as measured on the Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS). Scores are categorized as following: 0 to 6 - Normal /symptom absent. 7 to 19 - Mild depression. 20 to 34 - Moderate depression. >34 - Severe depression. The scores presented for each time point are absolute values. | 6 weeks, 9 weeks, 12 weeks | |
Primary | Change in Assessment of Quality of Life, as Measured by the WHO-QOL | In all conditions, changes in assessment of quality of life measured by the World Health Organization Quality of Life (WHO-QOL) scale. World Health Organization-Quality Of Life scale. The overall scores range between 26-130. In all domains, higher scores indicate better health. Domain 1 measures physical health (scores range from 7-35). Domain 2 measures psychological health (scores range from 6-30). Domain 3 measures social health (scores range from 3-15). Domain 4 measures environmental health (scores range from 8-40). The scores presented for each time point are absolute values. | 6 weeks, 9 weeks, 12 weeks | |
Primary | Change in Assessment of Stress, as Measured by the PSS | In all conditions, changes in assessment of stress measured by the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) scale. Scores range from 0-40. Scores ranging from 0-13 are considered low stress, scores ranging from 14-26 are considered moderate stress, and scores ranging from 27-40 are considered high perceived stress. | Baseline, 6 weeks | |
Secondary | Change in Assessment of Exposure to Meaningful Activities, as Measured by the BADS | In all conditions, changes in assessment of meaningful activities measured by the Behavioral Activation for Depression Scale (BADS). Scores are divided across 4 domains: Activation subscale scores range from 0-42, Avoidance/Rumination subscale scores range from 0-48, Work/School Impairment subscale scores range from 0-30, Social Impairment subscale scores range from 0-30. For all subscales, high scores are consistent with the subscale title (e.g., high scores on Activation subscale = more activation). | Baseline, 6 weeks |
