Today is World Elder Abuse Awareness Day.
Over the past few months, the City has been raising awareness of elder abuse through community events and educational resources designed to increase understanding of the issue and the support available.
As part of this work, the City produced 'Would it Matter?' - a video campaign encouraging viewers to consider the real people behind the statistics and the impact elder abuse can have on individuals, families and communities.
To learn more, we spoke with Encompass Legal & Community Services about what elder abuse can look like and why awareness matters.
