On Friday, June 15, from noon to 1:30 pm, the Oakland County SAVE (Serving Adults who are Vulnerable and/or Elderly) Task Force will host the 7th Annual International Day of Elder Abuse Awareness Event.
The event will be conducted in the Oakland County Board of Commissioners Auditorium, Oakland County Courthouse, 1200 North Telegraph in Pontiac. Check-in begins at 11:30 a.m. and a light luncheon will be provided. Maura Corrigan, director of the Michigan Department of Human Services will be the keynote speaker.

SAVE's Courage Awards will be presented to the following: Micheline Sommers of Oakland Family Services, HAVEN, and The Center for Elder Law of Michigan.
