Why Elder Abuse Is Often Underreported

By Justice For Our Parents

Elder abuse is far more common than most people realize—and tragically, it’s often hidden. Many victims are afraid to speak up due to fear of retaliation, dependence on their abuser, or shame. Others may be unable to communicate due to cognitive decline or disability. Families may miss warning signs or hesitate to report concerns, unsure of what qualifies as abuse. 

At Justice For Our Parents, we work to break this silence. Raising awareness and encouraging families to speak up is the first step toward justice. No one should suffer in silence.
