Episode 77: Redefining Aging: What does aging mean in our community?
Description
In this month’s episode of Let’s Talk Caregiving, Roberto and Marta sit down with Jocelyn Protopappas, Manager of Special Projects at SDSU’s Center for Excellence in Aging & Longevity (CEAL). Together, they dive into what it means to redefine aging, from inclusive city planning and caregiver empowerment to the importance of maintaining social connections later in life. Jocelyn also introduces CEAL’s Community Call Hub—a program matching socially isolated older adults and caregivers with friendly callers to reduce loneliness and provide human connection. Whether you're supporting a loved one or shaping the future of age-friendly communities, this conversation offers insight, resources, and real hope.
