As individuals age, family relationships often shift — sometimes creating stress, misunderstandings or conflict around care decisions. Aging adults may find themselves at the center of complex family dynamics, especially when health or independence becomes a concern. This webinar explores how aging adults and their families can work together to maintain respect, communication and mutual support through these transitions. As part of the Age Well series, join gerontologist and caregiver advocate Lakelyn Hogan Eichenberger, PhD, to gain insights into the emotional and practical challenges that arise in later-life family caregiving. Whether you are an aging adult, a family member or a professional supporting aging clients, you'll learn tools to help manage expectations, facilitate healthier conversations and support aging adults in retaining agency while promoting family unity.
