The United States is facing a crisis: a rapidly aging population with mental and behavioral health needs and a growing cohort of older adults and their families who want the older adult to be able to age in place at home. In addition, our family, friends, and neighbors lack access to the skills training necessary to support older adults to age in place. How are we going to deal with this dilemma?
Engage with® Older Adults at home Skills Training is a critical resource that is critical resource available to the public. This affordable, virtual, live, instructor-led skills training is evidenced based and is designed to help family, friends, and neighbors develop and improve critical skills that will help enrich the life of the older adult as well as relieve some of the burdens associated with partnering in care with an older adult who is aging in place at home.
Following completion of the Core Skills training, there are five 2-hour supplements available which can be “mixed and matched” to meet your individual needs.

“Three in 10 caregivers of adults ages 50+ are providing care completely alone, with no help from anyone else (paid or unpaid) … With complexity of care increasing and caregivers taking on more by caring for multiple people with multiple conditions, caregivers’ own health may suffer as a result… the heightened uncertainty and skyrocketing joblessness of the pandemic reinforces that we need to be acutely aware of the implications the findings in this report may have for caregivers of adults ages 50+ who were already being pulled in many directions.”
A nonprofit initiative on a mission to help enrich the lives of older adults and those who support them by improving continuity of care.
