The Research Chair on Mistreatment of Older Adults invites you to a presentation of the results of its research project, funded in partnership with the Office of Persons With Disabilities in Québec, entitled ‘Psychological and Financial Mistreatment of  Handicapped Persons in Québec.

This awareness campaign began in mid-February 2022 and places a situation of psychological mistreatment in the context of an intra-family relationship.

The Chair wishes to highlight the Commission's recent work to counter mistreatment and promote well-being that developed the first evolved nomenclature of mistreatment in France. It was done with a formal, intersectoral approach that sought consensus. The Commission is focused on children, those with disabilities or challenges, and older adults.

2022 began strongly for the Research Chair with four oral presentations to diverse audiences: health and social services professionals, representatives of community organisations, Service Quality and Complaints Commissioners, etc.
