This may be the most thoughtful, nonjudgmental discussion about ageism you've heard.
 
Meg LaPorte and Jordan Evans have set out to counter "the last acceptable -ism" — through artistic activism. They talk with host Rachel Hill about the nuances of ageism, and how art can start a dialogue around it in a non-confrontational way, that brings everyone into the discussion.

What's it like to be a caregiver for someone with dementia — before they need senior living, and as they're newly navigating it?
 
What if we could better support them during this process, helping them get the right care, at the right time?
 
Carrie Aalberts, the "Dementia Darling," of The Continuum, gives us insights from working directly with caregivers. Learn why she says, "The whole system is setting caregivers up to fail and they think it's their fault because they can't figure out this process" — and how we can make things better.
