Triad Regional Connections Podcast Episode: Shining a Light on Elder Abuse – Awareness, Prevention, and Action

Join hosts Audra Adams and Lamar Powell for a powerful and timely conversation on a topic that touches families and communities throughout the Triad and beyond: Elder Abuse.

In this episode, we welcome special guests Adrienne Calhoun and Heather Magill. Adrienne serves as the Director of the Area Agency on Aging with the Piedmont Triad Regional Council. Heather is an Elder Justice Specialist with the Family Justice Center in Guilford County. Together, we explore the often-hidden reality of elder abuse, why it’s so underreported, and what we can all do to protect our older adults.
