“Don’t Let Haboob…” speaks to the important and often tragic metaphor that occurs within millions of families each year. We will explore the growing crisis facing millions of families as America rapidly ages. More people now turn 65 than 18, leaving adult children—busy working, parenting, and planning their own futures—suddenly responsible for their parents’ care. These adult children are caught in the crossfire. Through conversations with professionals and insights from 25 years in the field, we aim to normalize aging and improve outcomes for every family we serve.
