Wells Fargo Advisors’ World Elder Abuse Awareness Day Conference, which was held at the Renaissance Mayflower hotel in Washington DC last week (June 13th, 2013) was a resounding success. “Last Will and Embezzlement” was screened to a standing-room-only house, followed by a Producer Q&A with Washington Post’s super-star reporter Michelle Singletary asking pointed, pertinent (…and sometimes slightly IMpertinent – LOL!) questions, and Pamela S. K. Glasner responding with powerful (and equally amusing when the occasion called for it) answers. Then the audience was given an opportunity to ask questions of their own.
This was followed by a panel discussion between Ms. Singletary and two of the most well-known women in the elder abuse prevention world: Manhattan Assistant District Attorney Elizabeth Loewy (who successfully prosecuted the famed Astor elder exploitation case), and US Administration on Aging’s Director of the Office of Elder Rights, Ms. Barbara J. Dieker.
The audience’s attention remained glued to screen and stage the entire time — all in all a grand, successful event, from which (we all hope – and believe) everyone walked away armed with even more information that can be used to protect our seniors and thwart the efforts of those who would abuse and exploit them.
Bravo, Wells Fargo Advisors, and thank you! You did a marvelous job!
