June is Elder Abuse Awareness Month, a time to stand together to protect and support older adults in our communities. 💜
On June 15, we recognize World Elder Abuse Awareness Day and raise awareness about the importance of dignity, respect, and safety for every elder.
If you suspect elder abuse, neglect, or exploitation, speak up. Together, we can build stronger support for elders and create safer communities for all.
You can report elder abuse to the Kansas Department for Children and Families by calling 1-800-922-5330. If the adult is at immediate risk contact local law enforcement or dial 911.
