Debbie Chow for BC Association of Community Response Networks writes, “a new initiative by BC CRN’s Chinese Community Response Network (CCRN) is tackling the complex issue of financial abuse head-on in Chinese-speaking communities in the province.
Led by the CCRN team of Daisy Au, CRN Coordinator and Seniors Club Coordinator with MOSAIC, Melanie Fong, an independent community outreach consultant, and Lin Chen, an independent contractor who has worked with Seniors First BC and several lower mainland CRNs, the initiative aims to open up discussions with Chinese seniors and their families about financial literacy and the resources available that can support important financial decisions.”
