Episode 17: Communities of Color

We often talk about family and paid caregivers as two distinct categories, but in reality these groups overlap...a lot. Especially in communities of color. On this episode we hear from a home health aide and family caregiver, Zulma Torres, about the difficulties she faces. And we hear an excerpt from a Longevity Project Virtual Event where Jean Accius of AARP, Karyne Jones of NCBA and Kezia Scales of PHI discuss the barriers people of color face with health care and caregiving, and what steps we can take towards more equitable care systems.
