Scam artists and fraudsters look for ways to take advantage of consumers. These presentations include information on how to protect yourself from fraud, warning signs it might be a scam, and common scams to look out for.
Elder Affairs
Protecting Arizona seniors from abuse and exploitation is an important priority for the Attorney General's Office. The office provides information on scams and consumer fraud, legal action against those who prey on seniors and life care planning.
Arizona Drug Trends
This presentation provides an overview of current drug trends in Arizona, focusing on the risks of opioids while offering practical tools for overdose prevention and awareness. It emphasizes recognizing signs of addiction and overdose, highlights the life-saving use of naloxone, and shares resources for support and education. This presentation is offered to the public to empower communities with knowledge to prevent substance misuse and save lives in the face of the opioid crisis.

For military personnel, veterans, and their families, the Arizona Attorney General's Office is providing information on employment, housing, and fraud problems.
