June is Elder Financial Exploitation Prevention Month. According to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, suspicious activity tied to elder exploitation typically occurs over an average of four months before it’s detected. That means what starts as a small request or a simple transaction can gradually turn into something much bigger.

To help your credit union tailor its efforts to communicate this important topic to your members, GoWest encourages you to promote the theme, “Pause. Ask. Protect.” The downloadable Elder Exploitation Prevention Toolkit gives your credit union simple, practical ways to help protect the people who trust you most.

The customizable blog posts, articles, social posts, and graphics can be used on your website, in a newsletter, or on social media.

Download the toolkit and put it to work in your community.

These fully customizable resources are made possible by the Credit Union League System.
