Today is World Elder Abuse Awareness Day (WEAAD), a time for communities to unite in standing against the abuse, neglect, and mistreatment of older people. By raising awareness and starting conversations, we can help prevent harm and support people to seek assistance sooner.
Looking to get involved? There are many events happening across the state, but a simple way to be involved and raise awareness is by wearing purple.
