Tireless advocate and GPNYC VP Carrie Leljedal was recently featured on the Elevate Eldercare podcast to discuss her work to bridge the worlds of advocacy for elders and people living with disabilities, which began after her adult son experienced a prolonged lockdown away from family and friends during the pandemic.
