"Shea discovered the plight of middle-class seniors while interning for six months at Huntington Beach Senior Center while pursuing a bachelor's degree in gerontological social work. She discovered that "99 times out of 100" the middle-class seniors she was working with couldn't qualify for additional assistance based on income, and she realized that the problem impacted many seniors."
