Join us for the inaugural Michigan Elder Justice Conference, a two-day conference focused on keeping older adults safe from abuse, neglect, and financial exploitation. Developed through a partnership between the SafeSeniors Elder Justice Collaborative, the Prosecuting Attorney’s Association of Michigan, and the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, this conference brings together professionals, experts, and advocates for opportunities to learn, network and collaborate. Session topics include the work of Multidisciplinary Teams from across the state, investigation strategies, building partnerships, ageism and brain change, scams and fraud prevention, and more.
