TEAS: Taking Elder Abuse Seriously

The CSRA Elder Rights Team operating as “Taking Elderly Abuse Seriously (TEAS)” is a multi-disciplinary group that provides the region with a united, coordinated, and consistent presence in the fight to end elder abuse. The focus of the team is education and training for the community at large.

The TEAS team develops materials that increase the awareness and understanding of elder abuse and promote the team as a valuable community resource. It will continue to provide a unified multimedia campaign utilizing regular appearances in print and television.

The Team plans the Annual Elder Rights Conference, supports CSRA Coalition of Advocates for the Aging Legislative Breakfast and Post Legislative Session, and provides ongoing elder rights/elder justice system and individual advocacy. For additional information, please contact us at 706-210-2018.
