Both groups are lead by an Alzheimer’s Association facilitator, the group provides an opportunity for caregivers to discuss how their lives have been affected as they care for someone with Alzheimer’s disease.
A safe and supportive environment will be created so group members can share feelings and coping strategies, reduce feelings of loneliness, as well as find new meaning, connection, and hope. Monthly meetings will be held based on interest and community response. Please call for details and information on future dates and times. Volunteer respite assistance may be available.
