Today, our offices are wearing purple in recognition of World Elder Abuse Awareness Day.

Older adults deserve to be treated with dignity, respect, and care. By raising awareness, we can help protect some of the most vulnerable members of our communities and encourage others to speak up when something doesn't seem right.

Together, we can help prevent elder abuse.

Monday, June 15th is World Elder Abuse Awareness Day.💜

Please join the FJC in solidarity by wearing purple to bring awareness to the precious and vulnerable elders in our community.💜

On this day, & every other, we stand together to advocate for their safety, dignity, & well-being.💜

June is Elder Abuse Awareness Month. 💜

Financial exploitation of older adults often doesn’t begin with theft—it begins with trust, manipulation, isolation, and undue influence. Friends, family members, caregivers, and others in positions of trust can gradually gain control over an elderly person’s finances and decisions without the victim realizing what is happening.

Learn the warning signs. Start the conversation. Help protect the seniors in our community.

If you suspect elder abuse or financial exploitation, report it to Adult Protective Services or local law enforcement.
