Workshop Topics
Money Matters
This interactive video workshop shows seniors how to avoid financial abuse (often by family, friends or caregivers) by using the services available to them at their banks, credit unions or trust companies to protect their money, their property and their independence.
Please view additional details on the Money Matters For Seniors video and workshop. You can request a workshop from BCCEAS, and/or order the video and accompanying Workshop Guide.
