Lisa A. Kendall, CSW-G

I believe in the strength, grace, and power of growing older, and of the gifts that being a care partner can bring to our lives. As an experienced and passionate social worker and gerontologist, I transform how we think about aging and Elder care, trauma, and grief by harnessing the wisdom, intuition, and creative spirit of adults, Elders, and organizations. Together we cultivate growth across the lifespan and nurture well-being for every member of the care partner team.
