At least 73,000 older adults in The listening tour provides a forum for members of the senior community to share concerns surrounding this often under-recognized and under-reported social problem. Abusers go to great lengths to harm the members of our most senior community in the forms of abuse, neglect and exploitation. Ensuring the safety and top-notch care for Michigan’s senior community is a top priority for the Attorney General’s Elder Abuse Task Force.
