If you are caring for a loved one who suffers from Alzheimer’s, Dementia, or any condition that affects memory, a TBI, or PTSD and are seeking ways to manage your life while being a caregiver, we welcome you to attend our FREE (participation and materials) workshop for Building Better Caregivers with a focus on Dementia.
This virtual workshop meets every Thursday,
August 13 – September 17,
from 6:00 pm to 8:30 pm.
(August 13, 20, 27, Sept 3, 10, 17)
This is a community-based, highly participatory workshop, where mutual support and success build confidence in your ability to manage caregiving tasks and maintain a fulfilling life.
This evidence-based education program offers caregivers self-care tools to reduce stress, manage emotions, and increase confidence in coping with caregiving demands. Originally developed for caregivers of adults with chronic conditions, the program has expanded to include parents of children with special needs. This is a six week workshop and each class builds on the knowledge gained in the previous course so participants are encouraged to attend all sessions to get the most benefit.
Classes are led by trained health professionals, using an evidenced-based program. Thousands of caregivers have benefited from this class.
Each session uses a combination of instruction, interactive exercises, and discussion based your own caregiving situations.
