Abstract

ABSTRACT Advocacy in illness and aging is a formidable challenge. Physical illness, financial dependence or constraint, social-emotional problems, and the changing political and demographic structure of caregiving force severe demands on intervention programs and possibilities. This paper provides an uncommon but, hopefully, reasonable framework for freeing clinicians, educators, and helping professionals from their own ideas which periodically are rendered problematic in providing successful intervention. Several illustrations of these practical problems are presented. Finally some postures for advocacy and intervention are considered.
