Join EAPO for upcoming webinar on February 28th: Many faces of Elder Abuse: Insights into Loneliness, Mobility Challenges, Dementia and Representational Inequity in Black Older Adults.
Understanding the many faces of elder abuse and addressing it is a fundamental need of all seniors and a significant way of upholding the older adults’ aspects of being human. Evidence abounds that links elder abuse to loneliness, mobility limitations and cognitive vulnerability such as dementia.
However, little is known about how these impact Black older adults.
Join Dr. Michael Kalu, Dr Blessing Ojembe and Oluwagbemiga Oyinlola as they discuss insights from their individual research with Black older adults on mobility limitations, loneliness and dementia, respectively.
