Share Your Story

We all use stories to communicate with each other. Stories are one of the most effective tools to communicate the impact of elder justice programs. Stories help our Members of Congress and other policymakers understand how big the problem of elder abuse is. Federal funding for important elder justice programs isn’t enough to meet the needs of older adults experiencing elder abuse, neglect and fraud. This makes it harder for folks to find help and resources. If you or someone you love has been affected by elder abuse, neglect, and/or fraud, please take a moment to share your story. Your voice and your story matter.

Your information will remain private and you can choose to tell your story anonymously.

Tell us a little about yourself or your loved one:

Q1: What was your situation when you or your loved one first started experiencing elder abuse, neglect, and/or fraud? (What was your/their living situation like, were you/they struggling with any health issues, etc.?)

Q2: What would you like to share about your story?

Q3: What do you wish people knew about elder abuse, neglect, and fraud?

Q4: What are your hopes for the future?
