People caring for loved ones often don't know about the help that's available from their local Area Agency on Aging. Cathy Knight is state director at Washington Association of Area Agencies on Aging and in our new video, she walks you though the services you can use and how to find them. Help includes adult day services, caregiver support, case management, elder abuse prevention, health maintenance and promotion, information and assistance, legal support, nutrition, senior centers and transportation. When you don't know where to turn, your local Area Agency on Aging can make a difference with services you didn't know existed. #caregivers
