Unlike other existing SPVM programs that focus solely on fraud prevention through education, this initiative emphasized post-intervention support for senior victims of fraud.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>This in-person support group was piloted in 2024 in collaboration with the Teresa Dellar Palliative Care Residence and the Montreal Institute of Palliative Care.\u00a0 The officer reached out to us for guidance in planning, goal setting, and group development.\u00a0 This partnership enabled the SPVM to provide meaningful follow-up with registered victims and benefit from the Institute\u2019s expertise in managing difficult conversations, offering emotional support for grief and loss, and helping participants rebuild trust and confidence.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Monthly sessions were launched by contacting local seniors who had recently reported fraud-related crimes to the police.\u00a0 Fourteen seniors were invited to take part in the pilot, which involved three to four group sessions held at a local SPVM station. The goal was to create a safe and supportive space where participants could share their experiences, build friendships, learn fraud-prevention strategies, and support one another in regaining their independence and confidence.<\/p><p>The specific goals of the SAFE project are:<br \/><br \/><\/p><ul><li>To unite seniors who have been victims of fraud<\/li><li>To break the isolation and shame they may feel<\/li><li>To allow sharing their situation without being judged<\/li><li>To create a circle of friendship between participants<\/li><li>To educate them on types of frauds and prevent risk of revictimization<\/li><li>To offer resources and support<br \/><br \/><\/li><\/ul><p>After just four sessions, the success of this project prompted the Montreal SPVM to take over the initiative and establish it as an official program across all stations in the city. They subsequently partnered with the CLSC to enhance the program with additional professional support. Since then, ongoing SAFE groups have been launched, each serving forty or more senior victims, along with growing waitlists, a clear indication of both the need for this type of support service and its meaningful impact on the well-being of our senior citizens.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>We are proud to have been part of the initial development of this program, and through our ongoing partnerships with the SPVM, we continue to participate in community operations to reach vulnerable citizens and connect them with the resources they need.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-65ddb6a elementor-widget-divider--view-line_icon elementor-view-default elementor-widget-divider--element-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"65ddb6a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon elementor-divider__element\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-layer-group\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M12.41 148.02l232.94 105.67c6.8 3.09 14.49 3.09 21.29 0l232.94-105.67c16.55-7.51 16.55-32.52 0-40.03L266.65 2.31a25.607 25.607 0 0 0-21.29 0L12.41 107.98c-16.55 7.51-16.55 32.53 0 40.04zm487.18 88.28l-58.09-26.33-161.64 73.27c-7.56 3.43-15.59 5.17-23.86 5.17s-16.29-1.74-23.86-5.17L70.51 209.97l-58.1 26.33c-16.55 7.5-16.55 32.5 0 40l232.94 105.59c6.8 3.08 14.49 3.08 21.29 0L499.59 276.3c16.55-7.5 16.55-32.5 0-40zm0 127.8l-57.87-26.23-161.86 73.37c-7.56 3.43-15.59 5.17-23.86 5.17s-16.29-1.74-23.86-5.17L70.29 337.87 12.41 364.1c-16.55 7.5-16.55 32.5 0 40l232.94 105.59c6.8 3.08 14.49 3.08 21.29 0L499.59 404.1c16.55-7.5 16.55-32.5 0-40z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-311ab75 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"311ab75\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b4a0bc1\" data-id=\"b4a0bc1\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d8b9264 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d8b9264\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Community Presentations and Workshops<\/h3>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-82d03f1 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"82d03f1\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-61b7662\" data-id=\"61b7662\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4448c4a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4448c4a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>We work with community groups, organizations, and care teams to assess needs and deliver tailored presentations and workshops, in person or virtually.<\/p>\n<p>Offered in both French and English, our sessions cover a range of topics including caregiving, grief and bereavement and advance care planning.
