In this episode of Making Sense of Money, presented by P1FCU, Tanis sits down with Mona Jacks from Community Action Partnership’s Area Agency on Aging to talk about a topic that impacts more families than we often realize, protecting our aging loved ones.
As an Adult Protection Supervisor, Mona shares what she’s seeing across North Central Idaho, from rising financial challenges on fixed incomes to the growing sophistication of scams targeting seniors. Together, they discuss the warning signs of financial exploitation, how to start difficult (but important) conversations with aging parents, and why planning ahead can make all the difference.
You’ll also learn practical steps families can take to protect their loved ones, where to turn for help, and how community resources like CAP and local financial institutions work together to support vulnerable populations.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone with aging parents, caregivers, or those simply looking to stay informed and proactive when it comes to financial safety.
