This months WBN luncheon will feature J. RobRoy Platt of Platt Law speaking on Recognizing and Preventing Elder Abuse. This is a critical concept in many professions, and will help you recognize and address the issue if you see it with clients or customers (or neighbors, family or friends). RobRoy will help us understand why this is such an important issue, know the signs that the elderly are being manipulated or taken advantage of, and suggest strategies for stopping the abuse.
