This presentation was developed as a tool for credit unions to deliver public education about financial abuse.

The project was led by PEAM in collaboration with Credit Union Central of Manitoba (CUCM), Credit Union Central of Canada (CUCC), CUSOURCE: Credit Union Knowledge Network and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada (FCAC). Funding was provided by the Government of Canada's New Horizons for Seniors Program.
