Give an Hour is partnering with SilverShield to bring together mental health and fraud prevention in a new way, one that focuses not only on stopping fraud, but on understanding its human impact and strengthening how we respond. This free, virtual training is open to the public.

Financial fraud is often discussed as a financial issue, but the reality is far more complex. Behind every fraud incident is a person navigating confusion, shame, loss of trust, and often isolation. While prevention continues to evolve, the systems and conversations that support people after fraud are still catching up.

Across three sessions, we’ll explore: How financial fraud impacts emotional well-being, identity, and trust; What it looks like to support someone in real time, without increasing shame or resistance; How individuals, communities, and organizations can play a role in recovery and prevention. This is session three.

Each session is designed to be accessible, practical, and grounded in real-world experience, with tools and resources you can apply immediately. Fraud doesn’t end when the transaction is complete. In many cases, individuals are left navigating the aftermath alone, unsure where to turn, how to talk about what happened, or what steps to take next. This series is part of a broader effort to build stronger infrastructure around recovery, connecting human need with systems that are better equipped to respond. Whether you are experiencing this personally, supporting someone else, or working within an organization addressing fraud, this conversation is for you.
