Congratulations to the winners of our Purple City Festival Treasure Hunt sponsored by Cornerstone Community Bank! Thank you to everyone who attended and supported the event to raise awareness and prevent elder abuse! 💜

Our volunteers and staff are reaching isolated, at-risk elders for support and assistance. Call 530-232-5543 to refer a neighbor or loved one for a friendly call and free assistance.

Let's keep our loved ones safe!

Mark your calendars and plan to come get helpful information from experts! We will be there, so please stop by our booth to say hello. 💛
