Join AARP for a Walk with a Doc!

This is a special edition of our typical Walk with a Doc! So join us as we participate in World Elder Abuse Day!

World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, observed annually on June 15, for us it will be June 28th! This day aims to raise awareness about the abuse and neglect that older adults face. This day serves as a global call to action to address the challenges and injustices that elderly individuals endure, ranging from physical harm to emotional and financial exploitation.

By spotlighting these issues, World Elder Abuse Awareness Day seeks to raise awareness of the cultural, social, economic and demographic processes affecting elder abuse and neglect, foster respect for elders, and encourage policies and programs that protect the rights and well-being of older persons.

Please be sure to also visit the AARP Florida Fraud Resource Page for statewide information and print resources on important fraud topics.
