💜 Stand with us to protect and empower older adults!
Join us for our Elder Abuse Awareness Event — a free, informative session focused on recognizing the signs of elder abuse, learning how to report it in both community and nursing facility settings, and strengthening our commitment to a safer community for seniors.

🗣️ Hear from experts at Jewish Family Service (JFS) and the Dauphin County Area Agency on Aging, explore educational resources, and connect with local support services.

Whether you’re a caregiver, professional, or concerned community member — your participation makes a difference.
