Elder abuse prevention is everyone’s business.

COTA Tasmania, as the peak body for older Tasmanians, worked collaboratively with key
referral services, Older Voices for Change lived-experience Advocates, Local Government, and
Neighbourhood House key representatives to develop a series of four-short films to raise
awareness of lifelong respect: elder abuse prevention awareness.

These resources promote awareness of the abuse older Tasmanians are experiencing, how to
prevent this, and ways to respond appropriately, including knowing which support services you
may consider accessing to help.
