Abstract: 

This article is a first-person account of the author’s involvement with each of two non-profits working with the elderly, focusing on the kinds of issues they confront and ways in which they tackle the challenges. The first is the Elder Financial Protection Network; the other was spun off from it as a result of the program’s successes: the CASE (Communities Against Senior Exploitation) Program, currently focused on Contra Costa County, California.
