Julia will offer live demonstrations, tips, handouts and a Q&A presentation about preventing falls and how to fall to reduce injury. Free for members/non-members.

Financial Beginnings Workshop

Safe Banking for Seniors: Identifying and Avoiding Scams

Wednesday, October 11, 1-2:30pm

Free for members/non-members

Join us a practical and insightful workshop put on by Financial Beginnings, a nonprofit that teaches people how to play an active role in their financial well-being. Our speaker will be Duncan Taylor, Financial Beginnings volunteer and SVP/ Chief Operating Officer for the Washington Bankers Association.

Scammers target older customers because of the size of their assets, their tendency to be more trusting, the likelihood of their being stressed by family, medical and financial problems, their concern about having enough money and their embarrassment about admitting they’ve been duped. This workshop will present types of scams, why they work, warning signs and how to build scam defenses.
