Survey: The national plan responding to the abuse of older Australians

The Australian Government Attorney-General’s Department has commissioned the Australian Institute of Family Studies to evaluate the National Plan to Respond to the Abuse of Older Australians (Elder Abuse) 2019–2023, and to guide future action to address elder abuse.

As part of this work, AIFS are inviting anyone over the age of 18 to contribute to this evaluation via survey to help us better understand:

• What people in the Australian community know about elder abuse
• What people in Australia know about services and information to help people experiencing elder abuse
• How awareness of and responses to elder abuse can be improved.

The survey will be open until 7 April 2023. For further information about this project, please call 1800 720 142 or email [email protected].
