💜 Today, we recognize World Elder Abuse Awareness Day. 💜
Elder abuse can happen in many forms- physical, emotional, financial, neglect, or exploitation and it often goes unseen. Our older adults deserve safety, dignity, respect, and care.
Let’s take time today to raise awareness, check in on the seniors in our lives, and speak up if something doesn’t seem right.
If you suspect elder abuse, don’t ignore it. Awareness can lead to action, and action can help protect someone in need.
