Launch of a podcast summarizing the highlights of the research on psychological and material and financial mistreatment towards older adults with disabilities

The University Institute of Front Line in Health and Social Services(free translation of Institut universitaire de première ligne en santé et services sociaux
)(IUPLSSS), in collaboration with Marie Beaulieu and the Government agency that helps increase the social participation of people with disabilities in Québec (free translation of Office des Personnes Handicapées du Québec) (OPHQ), initiated the creation of a podcast summarizing the highlights of the research on psychological and material and financial mistreatment towards older adults with disabilities directed by Marie Beaulieu and Hélène Carbonneau of the UQTR.

The podcast has the goal of making the results of this study available, the first in Québec to give voice to older adults with disabilities who experienced mistreatment with the goal of understanding their experience and highlight their services trajectories.

The launch of the podcast will be on June 15 as part of the World Elder Abuse Awareness Day. Be on the lookout for more information on our social media and our website about the launch of the podcast!
