WEAAD Words Worldwide
Safety is first, and as the NCEA team continues to follow physical distancing guidelines and work remotely from our homes, we are thankful to remain connected through technology. We have been exploring creative ways to spark global awareness about elder abuse this year, and we hope to inspire you to develop a public service announcement (PSA) for WEAAD! Join us in forming a united front. Together, let’s demonstrate that we all have a stake in preventing this social justice issue. Â
