The intent behind World Elder Abuse Awareness Day is to provide an opportunity for communities around the world to increase awareness and prevent abuse and neglect of older persons by raising awareness of the cultural, social, economic, and demographic situations affecting elder abuse and neglect. Since last adopted, the Proclamation expanded from recognizing a "day" to recognizing the entire month of June.
