Impact of Elder Abuse

community as well as individuals
- Hurt Families – Stress on those involved as
well as others, ripple effect
- Emotional Trauma for Volunteers and Leaders of faith-based
Organization and Church Involved – all involved become less
responsive and able to serve effectively in the work of the ministry
- Litigation – very costly and damaging to those

past
- Shattered Trust – Church is a place of trust
