About 45 people who work with victims of elder abuse gathered Friday at St. Anthony de Padua Catholic Church for the annual Domestic Violence Gets Old conference.
The annual symposium organized by The Task Force Against Elder Domestic Violence aims to raise awareness of the abuse elderly people suffer from their partners. The elderly are subject to physical, financial, sexual abuse and neglect, officials said. Organizers said because crimes are underreported, there are few crime statistics regarding people over 60 years old.
