From the Elder Abuse Prevention Ontario:

Elder Abuse Prevention Ontario (EAPO) is the provincial organization recognized for its leadership in elder abuse prevention in the province, providing education, training, resource development and information about the increasingly complex issues of elder abuse.

Join the EAPO and the Canadian Network for the Prevention of Elder Abuse (CNPEA) for a webinar entitled “The Wildflower Way: Equity-Oriented Care for Women 55+ Who Experience Gender-Based Violence” on November 26 from 1-2pm. This webinar is provided with ASL interpretation. Register today!

The Wildflower Way, a new resource from CNPEA developed with the support of WAGE Canada, aims to support professionals in human services with tools to integrate services for older women who have experienced gender-based violence (GBV) into broader equity efforts through relational, trauma -and violence- informed policy and practice. The Wildflower Way is both a narrative strategy and a practical guide for nurturing growth, offering a path toward sustainability, healing, and genuine systemic change in human services. This webinar will introduce the guide and tools and how you can adopt them to help transform your practice.
