Don't keep it a secret...Pass it on to all your relatives,friends and neighbors..
I am so thrilled to find this great protection source for the Elderly right here in Torrance, This Coalition is to protect the Elders and stop Abuse and Financial Exploitation. Next week I will have more information after I attend the Keepsafe seminar given for our Remax Realtors. So stay tuned for the continued blog next Thursday.
I have included the link to keepsafe below. I hope this helps protect our Elders here and elsewhere. Pass it on to all your relatives and loved ones.
http://www.keep-safe.org/main.htm Here are some excerpts taken from the Keep Safe Coalition Website:
More than 60,000 persons age 65 or older live in our South Bay area. Elders in the South Bay (and elsewhere) are the targets of abusive financial scams and manipulation that seeks to strip them of their assets and financial security.
KEEP-SAFE stands for Keep Every Elder Protected - Stop Abuse and Financial Exploitation. The KEEP-SAFE Coalition is a grass roots effort that unites community and social service, law enforcement, financial and related service professionals to combat financial abuse and protect our elders within the South Bay cities of Southern California.
- Financial Institutions Task Force:
- Law Enforcement Task Force:
- Social Services Task Force: This task force focuses special effort on community information and involvement programs. It is charged with presenting an informative program for the community, which includes a 17-minute award-winning video. The program heightens awareness of financial abuse of elders, and provides information to help community members respond and help prevent or stop abuse of their friends and neighbors.
