Knox County TRIAD for Senior Citizens works to improve the quality of life for senior citizens by providing the exchange of information between law enforcement and persons aged 60 or older.

Among the services TRIAD offers are:
- Focus on senior citizen welfare and safety, including home checks of seniors.
- Safety provisions, such as smoke alarms, File of Life sheets and lock boxes.
- Combating social isolation
