Elder abuse is often a hidden crisis that can take many forms, affecting individuals anywhere and leaving behind deep physical, emotional, and psychological scars. Tragically, it’s far too common, often devastating, costly, and frequently goes unreported.

This issue requires collective action, with first responders, emergency healthcare providers, psychosocial professionals, long-term care facilities, senior living communities, social workers, and legal/financial services all playing vital roles. Through heightened awareness, early detection, protection, and effective support, these groups can make a profound difference in the lives of our vulnerable seniors.

No single system can solve this challenge alone. A united, multidisciplinary approach is essential to meet victims' needs and tackle elder abuse comprehensively.

Join us for a powerful one-day conference designed to spark collaboration and inspire action. Engage in meaningful conversations, learn from leading experts, and connect with professionals across disciplines. Together, we can create partnerships that empower us to protect our older adults and foster a safer, more compassionate future.
