June is Elder Abuse Awareness Month

This observance focuses on prevention and support for older adults who may be vulnerable to abuse, neglect, or exploitation.

Disturbing Statistics:

• Elder abuse affects millions of older adults annually
• Most abuse occurs by people they trust most
• Many cases go unreported due to shame or fear

Our Commitment:

• Resources: Providing support for elder abuse survivors
• Education: Raising awareness about warning signs
• Prevention: Teaching families about protection strategies
• Advocacy: Supporting vulnerable older adults in our community

Amberly’s Place recognizes that abuse affects people of all ages. Throughout June, we work to provide available support services for older adults and their families.
