Aging Matters, Age Equity in the Workplace w/ Sheila Callaham, Executive Director, Age Equity Alliance (Podcast). Many communities and state plans around aging only talk about caring. Don’t get me wrong, that is a high priority. But what these plans are missing is that when we think of longevity, we need to be holistic because older folks need support across ALL areas of life.
