The Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC) has openings in their free educational series, Powerful Tools for Caregivers. These classes help caregivers take better care of themselves while caring for a friend or relative. The lessons and discussions in these classes will help you take the “tools” you choose and put them into action for your life. Whether you provide care for a spouse, partner, parent, or friend, your role as a caregiver is important.
This six-week in-person series gives you the confidence and support to better care for your aging loved one – and yourself. Attendees will receive The Caregiver Helpbook, which follows the curriculum and provides additional tools to address specific caregiver issues. Attendees will also receive handouts.
