Strengthening Safety for Older Adults: The Power of Collaboration through
Law Enforcement, Legal, and Community Partnerships

Tuesday, December 17, 2024
10:00am - 12:00pm

Description:

Ensuring the safety of our older adults is a vital mission that requires collaboration among law enforcement, legal teams, and the community. By joining forces, we can create a protective framework that not only safeguards this vulnerable population but also empowers them. Together, we can raise awareness, provide essential resources, and cultivate a community where older adults feel secure and valued. Let's explore how effective partnerships can lead to a safer environment for everyone.
