Dear Neighbor,

June 15 is World Elder Abuse Awareness Day. Statistics show that 10% of adults aged 65 and older will experience some sort of elder abuse. Elder abuse can be physical, but the most commonly occurs through financial exploitation. 

As the co-chair of the Aging committee, I have worked diligently to push for legislation that will protect seniors in the state and will continue to do so in the future.

If you have any additional questions, comments, or concerns, I can be reached by phone at 1-800-842-8267 or by email at Jane.Garibay@cga.ct.gov. For legislative updates, please like my Official Facebook Page.

Sincerely,

Jane Garibay
State Representative
