It’s Not Right – Family ViolenceElder Abuse Prevention Ontario partnered with Western University to create a movement of social change in Ontario to stop abuse and neglect of older adults. Research has shown that most often it is bystanders – neighbours, friends, family and co-workers – who are closest to abusive situations and can see what is happening. They know that something isn’t right, but don’t know what to do. It’s Not Right! Neighbours, Friends and Families for Older Adults (INR) teaches people of all ages to recognize warning signs and how to respond safely and effectively. INR provides a a wide variety of audiences in discussions and practice on how neighbours, friends and family members can learn to recognize and respond to warning signs of abuse and neglect in the lives of older adults they know. These are the bystanders to abusive situations who often know that something isn’t right, but often don’t know what to do to help. If you are interested in having a Champion speak to your agency or senior group/club or attend an event, please contact Elder Abuse Prevention Ontario via email: [email protected] or phone: 416.916.6728.
