Webinar Description:
Futures Without Violence, in collaboration with the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges, and through a grant from the Office for Victims of Crime, U.S. Department of Justice, will host a webinar to address how courts and communities can work together to enhance response to financial exploitation and abuse of older adults. This webinar will also provide information about our upcoming, two-day pilot institute for judges, court staff and community members to address financial exploitation and abuse of older adults on January 9-10, 2018 in Charlottesville, VA (pending DOJ approval).
We are currently accepting teams of 3-5 for this pilot training. Join us virtually to learn more about the upcoming pilot training and about collaborating to address abuse against older adults. In addition to providing information about financial exploitation and abuse of older adults and tips for successful collaborations, the staff will answer questions about the application and selection process for the pilot institute.
Learning Objectives:
After the webinar, participants will be better able to:
- Identify the benefits of cross-training and multi-disciplinary collaboration between courts, judges and community allies in order to serve older adult victims of financial exploitation and elder abuse
- Engage with stakeholders to commence and/or improve communication and collaboration to enhance the response to older adult victims of financial exploitation and elder abuse
