The Power of Storytelling: Shaping Caregiving Narratives and Preventing Abuse

In recognition of National Family Caregivers Month, the National Center on Elder Abuse, USC Family Caregiver Support Center, and Hollywood, Health & Society are hosting a webinar to highlight the power of storytelling to explore and elevate caregiving relationships in media. Too often, nuances of caregiving and related challenges are not portrayed or inaccurately depicted in popular culture. Audience’s attitudes are shaped by the stories they consume – whether through television, film, social media, or literature. 

This webinar is designed for caregivers, older adults, service providers, and media and elder justice professionals and will delve into why these stories matter, how they influence public perceptions, and how they can be used to increase awareness of resources for safe and supportive caregiving.
