Caregiving International needs you to communicate and talk when you see wrongdoing against older people. Children are often in environments of trauma, and may think that elder abuse is normal. Using profanity, threatening, stealing, and outright physical harm is escalating in America.
Every state has Adult Protect Services and a hotline number. This number is free. The first place you should contact if you think elders are being abused or their family members who are providing care call 911.
Our C. A. R. E curriculum will hold forums and classroom discussions in order to educate our children that abuse to anyone is wrong. We will be vigor in educating on all abuses against elders while encouraging them to speak out against child abuse. Children often live in fear. Elders live in fear as many are dependent on the care of someone else, making more at risk.
