Report: The Things They Carry - Advancing Trauma – Informed Responses to Elder Abuse

Elder Abuse Report web

NYC Elder Abuse Center and The Weinberg Center for Elder Justice have released a report, "The Things They Carry: Advancing Trauma – Informed Responses to Elder Abuse."

The report contains recommendations from symposium experts who charted a course for advancing responses to elder abuse that are informed by the manifestations and consequences of trauma and promising strategies for healing. Specific recommendations were developed in four overlapping domains: education and training, professional practice, research and policy.

The publication culls information and insights from the symposium, along with source materials provided by participants, as context for the recommendations.
