Elder Abuse Awareness: See Something, Say Something
Thursday, June 19, 2025: 6-7 pm
Online via Zoom
The “See Something, Say Something” program is designed for communities to give seniors (or someone they know) a safe, confidential and anonymous way to report suspected elder abuse. This session, hosted by Metro Vancouver Crime Stoppers, will teach you how to recognize and respond to physical, emotional, financial abuse, neglect and fraud. You’ll also receive practical tips on how to stay informed and protected. Crime Stoppers is here to help 24/7, offering support in over 115 languages, so no one is left behind because of a language barrier. Learn how this vital program empowers seniors and strengthens communities. If you see something, say something—because no one should suffer in silence.
