Support World Elder Abuse Awareness Day on June 15
World Elder Abuse Awareness Day (WEAAD) is commemorated every June 15th to provide an opportunity for communities to promote a better understanding of abuse and neglect of older adults. WEAAD reminds us that elder abuse has implications for all of us. It is a call to action for individuals, organizations, and communities to learn how to identify, address, and prevent elder abuse so we can all do our part to support everyone as they age.
This year, the theme for WEAAD is Building Strong Support for Elders. Visit the WEAAD webpage for more information and how to get involved.
