Caring for older adults and their families often means walking alongside them through some of life's most difficult transitions.

That's why we're grateful to have Sunset Hospice supporting this year's Elder Advocacy Boot Camp. Their sponsorship adds another important voice from our local care community to a day built around education, collaboration, and better advocacy.

One of the strengths of the Boot Camp is that no single profession or organization is expected to have every answer. By bringing different perspectives and resources together, we create a stronger network of professionals who can better support the people they serve.

Thank you, Sunset Hospice, for investing in this community of advocates and supporting the 5th Elder Advocacy Boot Camp.

Come learn alongside professionals from across our elder care community on September 18. Reserve your seat for the 5th Elder Advocacy Boot Camp at dkarplaw.com/bootcamp.

You created a will to make sure your wishes are known and the people you care about are protected. But what happens if that will doesn’t hold up when your family needs it most?

In Arizona, certain mistakes or circumstances can put a will’s validity at risk. From problems with how it was signed and witnessed to questions about capacity, undue influence, improper changes, and outdated planning. Even seemingly small missteps can lead to confusion, disputes, or outcomes you never intended.

Understanding what can jeopardize a will is an important part of protecting your wishes and your loved ones. In this blog, we break down what can void a will in Arizona, common mistakes to watch for, and steps you can take to help ensure your estate plan works the way you intended.

Read the full blog to learn what could put your will at risk, and how thoughtful planning can help protect your legacy. http://dkarplaw.com/what-voids-a-will/

As we get closer to this year's Elder Advocacy Boot Camp, we'd like to hear from the professionals we created it for.

When you're serving older adults and their families, you encounter questions that don't always fit neatly within your own area of expertise. That's one reason we've intentionally brought together experts from dementia care, geriatric mental health, elder law, ALTCS, and end-of-life support for this year's Boot Camp.

So before we gather on September 18, we're curious: What's one question you wish you had a better answer to when helping an older adult or their family?
Share it in the comments. Chances are, another advocate has wrestled with that same question.

Better informed advocates create better outcomes for older adults and their families.

Want to be part of the conversation? Join us September 18 for the 5th Elder Advocacy Boot Camp. Visit dkarplaw.com/bootcamp to reserve your seat.

The Elder Advocacy Bootcamp is designed to help social workers, care managers, and nursing home administrators feel better prepared to address critical elder care issues and make informed decisions when it matters most.

Join us on September 18, 2026, from 8:30 AM–3:30 PM for a day focused on education, guidance, and solutions you can put into practice.

The best advocacy happens when professionals across our community recognize that serving older adults and their families is a shared effort.

We're grateful to have Vineyard Park Cottages Tucson Gardens supporting this year's Elder Advocacy Boot Camp. Their sponsorship represents something we value deeply about this event: bringing together organizations and professionals from different areas of senior care around a common purpose.

When members of our elder care community invest in education, they're investing in the people who help older adults and their families navigate important decisions every day.

Thank you, Vineyard Park Cottages Tucson Gardens, for supporting the 5th Elder Advocacy Boot Camp and the advocates who make this work possible.

Loneliness in an older adult doesn't always look like someone saying, "I'm lonely." It may show up as withdrawal, a loss of interest in usual activities, fewer social connections, or changes that cause family members to wonder what is really going on.

For professionals serving older adults and their families, recognizing the impact of loneliness and social isolation can be an important part of seeing the bigger picture. It also raises an important question: once we recognize it, how can we help?

At the Elder Advocacy Boot Camp, board-certified Adult and Geriatric Psychiatrist Dr. Jasmine Singh will explore the impact of loneliness and social isolation on aging and share actionable strategies for strengthening resilience in older populations.

We'd love to learn from the advocates following along, too. What resources, programs, or approaches have you seen make a meaningful difference in helping older adults stay connected? Share them in the comments so others can learn from your experience.

Serving older adults well often means knowing where to turn when a family needs help beyond your own area of expertise.

That's why we're grateful to have Placita Senior Advisors supporting this year's Elder Advocacy Boot Camp. Their team helps Southern Arizona families navigate senior care options and find resources that fit their loved one's individual needs.
Their support is also another reminder of what makes the elder advocacy community so valuable.

When professionals and organizations from different areas come together to share knowledge and resources, we're all better equipped to serve older adults and their families.

Thank you, Placita Senior Advisors, for investing in the advocates who do this important work every day and for helping us make the 5th Elder Advocacy Boot Camp possible.

Many people are familiar with the support a birth doula provides, but the role of an End-of-Life Doula may be less familiar.

An End-of-Life Doula provides non-medical support to individuals and families before, during, and after a death. Their role is different from the care provided by medical, legal, and spiritual professionals, but understanding how those roles can complement one another gives advocates another resource to consider when supporting a family.

At this year's Elder Advocacy Boot Camp, Certified End-of-Life Doula and Creative Grief Support Specialist Carly Flagg will help attendees better understand what doula support can look like and how to recognize when it may benefit an individual or family.
