But first, let's promote this important reminder about writing out "2020" on financial documents. It's been reported that checks that have the abbreviation are suspectable to check fraud by using changing the date to from '20, to 2019 or other dates. Watch for a post on this issue.
The Michigan Attorney General, Dana Nessel's office has published a series of flyers for the community from the "Elder Abuse Task Force" efforts. Law enforcement and crime prevention personnel are encouraged to print the flyers and share with members of their community. We'd like to thank her for her leadership on this important issue for our seniors.
In November of 2018, we hosted a community forum in Pittsfield Twp. with a panel discussion. During this presentation,I shared my family's experience with the challenges of caring for my 95 yr. old father-in-law who was diagnosed with Frontal Dementia. We also had the AARP provide an overview of scams and frauds impacting seniors and a panel discussion with Adult Protective Services, Elder Law, the Washtenaw County Prosecuting Attorney's Office, Bassett Law, dfcu financial , Homewatch CareGivers, AARP, and Lakeshore Legal Aid, MI Nursing Home Ombudsman.

There are a number of great organizations involved with the Elder Abuse Task Force and we'll be sharing information throughout 2020. Please share this information with friends and those are in need of assistance with taking care of a family member or friend.
