Joan Steeves of Vallejo, CA has seen elder abuse first-hand in working with the police department and tells Rep. George Miller (D-CA) to pass the Elder Justice Act, because we need more rules and regulations governing abusive caregivers.

Elder abuse is a silent issue, robbing the nation’s elders of their dignity, their security and, in comes cases, costing them their lives.

The Elder Justice Act would fund a public awareness campaign around prevention and best practices targeting law enforcement, financial institutions, caregivers and family members.
