Elder Financial Abuse In-Person / Online
Elder Financial Abuse has skyrocketed to be the number 1 issue reported and verified to Adult Protective Services staff – and that’s only the tip of the iceberg. Many professionals believe that a significant amount of abuse goes unreported. The results of a recent national survey indicate that as many as 20% of older Americans have already experienced financial fraud or are concerned about becoming victims. This session will outline information about Elder Financial Abuse and the latest scams. It will also provide resources on when and where to report to authorities when a person suspects this type of abuse may be happening.
This event is free and open to the public. The program will also be livestreamed on Zoom for those unable to attend in person. Registration is required.
