Last week, I had the welcome opportunity to talk to the Shoreline Eldercare Alliance about elder mediation at their regular meeting in East Haven, Connecticut. The Shoreline Eldercare Alliance, or SEA, describes itself as “a group of ethical business owners and representatives of area organizations who provide senior adults and community members with information, resource referrals, education, and quality professional services.” These professionals covered a wide spectrum of care and services for elderly people and carried a depth of knowledge about aging safely, productively, and contentedly.
It was a pleasure to talk to SEA and explain a bit about the growing field of elder mediation to individuals who every day work closely with families and their aging loved ones.
