Yesterday, the Department of Justice and the Department of Health and Human Services released the Elder Justice Roadmap - a detailed, practical guide by the field, for the field to engage in strategic planning to create coordinated approaches to addressing elder abuse: ncea.acl.gov/Library/Gov_Report/index.aspx This unprecedented effort gathered input from public and private entities, experts from across the United States, and hundreds of people who address elder abuse and have a role to play in detecting and preventing it. The Roadmap reflects the knowledge and perspectives of these experts and will be considered by the Elder Jusice Coordinating Council and others in developing their own plans to prevent and address elder abuse. The Consumer Voice/National LTC Ombudsman Resource Center participated as subject matter experts for the Roadmap, and is a member of the Roadmaps Interim Steering Committee. Comments and feedback are welcome and should be sent to elderjusticeroadmap@gmail.
