Doris Gioffre talks about the Living a Positive Life Toolkit developed by the Aged Rights Advocacy Service (ARAS). It aims to help start the conversation about elder abuse.
Rather than focus on the term ‘abuse’, which is difficult to translate for culturally and linguistically diverse communities, the kit promotes four key positive strategies. The toolkit is targeted to anyone who has a connection with elderly people in the community. The kit has also been trialled successfully with First Nations communities.
