Speaker Series - A Policy Conversation on Family Caregiving for Older Adults - October 10, 2018

Kathleen Kelly, M.P.A., Executive Director of the Family Caregiver Alliance, joined us for our third Speaker Series program focusing on California’s rapidly growing and increasingly diverse older adult population. Ms. Kelly provided an overview of policy opportunities and system reforms based on her extensive national experience and her participation on the California Task Force on Family Caregiving. Social entrepreneur, biomedical researcher and Alzheimer’s advocate Nihal Satyadev provided a millennial perspective on caregiving. Noticing a lack of youth advocacy for Alzheimer’s disease, he founded The Youth Movement Against Alzheimer’s (YMAA). During his three years as CEO, YMAA has become the nation’s widest-reaching nonprofit in providing opportunities for college and high school students to advocate, research and provide care for those battling the disease. A facilitated dialogue with audience interaction rounded out the program.
