World Elder Abuse Awareness Day – June 15, 2023 World



Spread the word about June 15 being World Elder Abuse Awareness Day. It can be difficult to believe that somebody would intentionally desire to hurt an older person, but regrettably, the issue is common. You've likely heard of scams aimed at elders. Some elder abuse cases are meant to financially take advantage of the victim. Other times, it's just carelessness: The essential necessities, such as wholesome food, suitable medication, safety, or support with personal cleanliness, are not provided by caregivers. Speak up if you see something.




The International Network for the Prevention of Elder Abuse and the World Health Organization jointly established World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, or WEAAD, on June 15, 2006. The United Nations General Assembly declared that day as World Elder Abuse Awareness Day in its 66/127 resolution. On this day, the entire world expresses its opposition to all forms of abuse of the elderly.
