Release Date
A special thank you to everyone who has completed the Service Provider Survey on Ending Abuse in Later Life.
Abuse in later life - the willful abuse, neglect, abandonment, or financial exploitation of an older adult who is age 50+ by someone in an ongoing, trust-based relationship (i.e., spouse, partner, family member, or caregiver) with the victim - is a severely unrecognized and unreported crime. Your feedback will help us determine how best to raise awareness and support victims seeking help.
Please take a moment to complete the service provider survey by May 1, 2017 -- https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/eallorg
If you have any questions regarding this survey, need information about local resources, or would like to assist us in surveying older adults, please contact Cheryl O'Donnell at odonnellc@charleston-sc.gov or 843.577.2234.
