That does not include financial exploitation. Advocates say much more can and should be done – such as the recent $4 million Congressional appropriation for a portion of the Elder Justice Act as part of the FY2015 Omnibus spending bill.  \nThe many forms of physical and psychological abuse seriously affect older adults’ health and wellbeing. What is being done about it and how reporters can bring more of these issues to light in their own communities? \nJoin Liz Seegert\, AHCJ’s core topic leader on aging\, and Bob Blancato\, national coordinator of the Elder Justice Coalition\, a 3\,000-member bipartisan coalition working to increase funding and awareness of this issue\, on Monday\, Feb. 2\, at 2 p.m. ET for our webcast. \n<!– \nNOTE: This is exclusively for AHCJ members; you will need to be logged in.
