As the population ages, Pronia is seeking to tackle the growing concern, and taboo, of elder abuse within the community.
In doing so, the Greek Australian organisation has organised a workshop in collaboration with Seniors’ Rights Victoria on the prevention of elder abuse.
Set to take place at Clayton’s Community Centre, the two-hour meeting will first of all identify the various types of elder abuse, whilst also offering coping strategies.
To conclude, information will be provided on useful services, systems, and networks to help further combat the issue and to support victims.
The workshop will take place on Wednesday 10 August at the Clayton Community Centre, Youth & Family Services, 8-15 Cooke Street, Clayton, VIC from 10.30 am – 12.30 pm.
