Håfa Adai,
"Futures Without Violence" and the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges (NCJFCJ), in partnership with the Pacific Judicial Council (PJC), is pleased to offer a two-part *FREE* web workshop to help judges, lawyers, and stakeholders better identify and navigate issues of elder abuse in a variety of court hearings that may arise.
Thursday, February 18, 2021
9:30 AM GMT+10 Guam
Part I (90 minutes): All Registration Types Welcome
In court, individual abusers are responsible for violence; but systemically and socially, ageism is what helps support and maintain abuse against older adults. Ageism is pervasive and can contribute to disenfranchisement of older adults and chill access to the courts and help-seeking even when there are no bad intentions. What policies, practices, rules and regulations that impact the court or access to services inadvertently or intentionally harm older adults?
Learning Objectives: As a result of this web workshop, you will better able to:
- Consider how assumptions based on age can have harmful effects on older litigants in court.
- Identify how elder abuse may present in cases.
- Discuss what it means to create survivor-centered and trauma-informed solutions in cooperation with older survivors.
