GROVETOWN, Ga. (WJBF) - The CSRA Area Agency on Aging held its 2025 Elder Rights Conference at the Columbia County Exhibition Center on Wednesday.

"Our country is growing old. We're aging rapidly. And soon there will be more older people than there are younger people," said keynote speaker Candace Heisler, a retired prosecutor from San Francisco. "So when bad things happen to older people, we all need to address it to be aware of it, to be on the lookout for it, and to support the people who are being harmed."
