WA Strategy to Respond to the Abuse of Older People (Elder Abuse) 2019-2029

Plan
A 10-year plan that aims to prevent and respond to elder abuse in communities throughout Western Australia.
Last updated:

The Western Australian Government is committed to preventing and addressing elder abuse.

Our goal is to ensure that all older Western Australians live free from elder abuse, and are safe, respected and valued.

The Strategy will drive the delivery of this commitment by guiding government agencies and the community towards greater awareness and understanding of the causes, signs and consequences of elder abuse.

It will guide collective action to prevent and address elder abuse.
