Working with an older adult who may be experiencing elder abuse? Need support considering options and strategies? Call the ABA Senior Lawyers Division elder abuse support helpline at 718-581-1613 on Friday, June 13 to speak with an experienced elder justice professional. The helpline will be staffed by a multidisciplinary team of attorneys and social workers from 9:30 AM to 4:30 PM EDT.
In recognition of this year’s World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, the SLD is teaming up with The Weinberg Center for Elder Justice, a NYC-based elder abuse safe haven to sponsor an elder abuse support helpline for ABA members working with older adult clients. Callers will speak with an experienced elder justice professional from The Weinberg Center’s team to get information and guidance on complex issues of abuse and exploitation that may be presenting during an attorney’s representation of an older adult.
