Aging Together: A Summit for Action on Elder Justice
Aging Together: A Summit for Action on Elder Justice
Scammers are criminals who are targeting older Pennsylvanians every day – stealing savings, shattering trust, and leaving families searching for answers. Aging Together: A Summit for Action on Elder Justice brings the community together at a critical moment to confront fraud and elder financial exploitation head-on.
Hosted by WVIA, in partnership with the Pennsylvania Department of Aging, AARP Pennsylvania, and the Moses Taylor Foundation, this free, in-person summit will equip Pennsylvanians with practical tools, trusted resources, and real-world strategies to stop scams before they start. The day will culminate in a powerful recorded panel discussion focusing on strengthening prevention, reporting, and response across the Commonwealth. The panel will air statewide on WVIA TV on June 15, 2026 in observance of World Elder Abuse Awareness Day.
