In this inspiring episode of M.E.S.H., host Pamela Brewer welcomes Geoff Rogers, Director of Learning and Development Projects at the Silberman School of Social Work at Hunter College (NYC). Together, they unpack the realities of working in Adult Protective Services (APS): the calling, resilience, and humanity required to support vulnerable adults facing abuse, neglect, and exploitation. Geoff Rogers shares insights on the skill set needed, the emotional toll of the work, why remembering the humanity of both practitioners and clients is essential. Practical advice for those considering this path—and how to access further resources—is at the heart of this thoughtful conversation.
