Financial Elder Abuse: Understanding Risk, Interventions & System Responses

A short paper outlining financial elder abuse and how it can develop over time through changing relationships, life transitions, social isolation, and increasing reliance on others. It introduces two visual resources: the Life Course Journey Map highlights key touchpoints where vulnerability and risk may emerge across the life course, and the Tiered Response System which proposes a stepped care approach from community connection and early support through to civil and criminal responses. Together, the tools promote a coordinated, life course approach to preventing and responding to financial elder abuse.
