Are you a caregiver who is caring for someone with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias?
Do you feel that the responsibility is overwhelming at times?
You are not alone. We have programs designed to help you cope with the day-to-day stress through group support and individual programs.
Evening Caregiver Support Group
A monthly support group for caregivers to discuss common issues, practice relaxation techniques and gain support from peers. This is a joint program with Meals on Wheels and More.
The third Tuesday of each month, 4:00 to 5:30 p.m at 80 Sheppard Ave West
A Day Away Caregiver Support Group
An opportunity to ask for advice, navigate community resources, access care, and meet other caregivers who will be able to relate to you.
The first Wednesday of each month, 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. at 80 Sheppard Ave West.
Being a family caregiver can be extremely gratifying, but anyone who has been down this road can speak to its many challenges.
The Caregiver Workshop Series is here again to connect us all in 2021.
