🚨Tomorrow - Monday, June 15 - is World Elder Abuse Awareness Day. 🚨

Unfortunately, older adults can be vulnerable to abuse, neglect, financial exploitation, abandonment, and other forms of mistreatment.

Help protect older adults in our community:

⚠️ Know how to report suspected elder abuse and exploitation: tcoa.org/resources/elder-abuse-and-exploitation-resources/

⚠️Share information with family, friends, neighbors, and caregivers to help raise awareness.

Together, we can build a safer, stronger community for people of all ages. 🙌👵👴
