The goal of the Listserv is to provide a forum for professionals who have a scholarly and/or professional interest in an area of elder mistreatment, neglect, and exploitation. Subscribers may either share or solicit pertinent news, events, and opportunities relevant to topic areas.

Subscription to the Listserv is restricted to the following list of individuals so that subscribers will have a secure environment for free and open discourse: Adult protective services practitioners and administrators; Aging services providers and administrators; Doctoral candidates*; Educators Fellows*; Graduate students* Health professionals Interns*; Judges Lawyers; Law enforcement officers Prosecutors; Policymakers; Researchers

Appropriate professional etiquette in Listserv messages is expected of all subscribers who must adhere to the following rules and guidelines (items in quotations are from L-Soft international, Inc. February 24, 2006. List Owner's Manual for LISTSERV®, version 14.5):  “Because the listserv is sponsored by the federal government, it cannot be used to lobby for or against legislation. Please contact the listserv manager if you are unsure whether a message you wish to post could be considered lobbying. The listserv may not be used to either advertise or make inquiries to professionals for internships and career opportunities. The listserv is not intended to be a source of training; however, questions about available training resources are appropriate for posting to the list. Please be clear and concise in messages, and limit messages to those which can reasonably be considered to add value to the discussion. Please keep in mind that the list is a "closed" list to subscribers only. Be mindful that sensitive information may be contained in messages and that it may not be appropriate to forward messages that contain identifiable information to people not subscribed to the Elder Abuse listserv. In addition, please remember that subscribers do have the ability to forward messages to people beyond the listserv, so exercise caution when sharing personally identifiable information. If someone has sent a private message to you, and not to the entire list, please do not post the private mail to the list. Discussions will often result in disagreements. Rebuttals to another person's opinions or beliefs should always be made in a rational, logical and mature manner, whether they are made publicly or privately. Subscribers should refrain from abusive or derogatory language that might be considered questionable. Unsolicited advertising and chain letters are generally contrary to appropriate use policies.”

Please feel free to send feedback and suggestions, as well as questions or concerns, to the listserv managers.
