Your Care, Their Care with Sharon R. Melancon, Jeanie Harris & Dr. Emnet Z. Gammada
In this powerful episode of Urban Family Focus, we explore the emotional, physical, and spiritual realities of caregiving in “Your Care, Their Care.”
Our guests bring deep experience, compassion, and truth to the conversation:
• Sharon R. Melancon & Jeanie Harris — Founders of Actively Caring Through Sharing (ACTS), a nonprofit dedicated to supporting caregivers with education, resources, and a safe space to share their journey.
• Dr. Emnet Z. Gammada — Clinical Gero-Neuropsychology Fellow at UCLA, whose work focuses on Alzheimer’s, dementia, and healing-centered approaches to closing health disparity gaps.
Together, we talk about the challenges caregivers face, the importance of community support, and the healing power of being seen, heard, and understood.
If you are caring for a loved one or simply want to better understand the caregiver experience, this episode offers insight, encouragement, and tools to help you navigate the journey with strength and grace.
