While caring for an aging loved one can be a rewarding, life-enriching experience, it can also sometimes be difficult. Family caregivers often neglect their own needs and can struggle to find the support they need.

Family Caregiving Connections: Learn, Link, and Lunch will give caregivers a day that is all about them. You’ll be the focus. We’ll help you find information and inspiration, while you connect with resources and build a sense of community.

We invite you to join us to:

Learn from caregiving experts:
Get the knowledge you need. We will have expert presentations on the legal aspects of caregiving and caring for a loved one with dementia.

Link to local resources:

• Visit with exhibitors from senior and caregiver focused organizations.
• Meet 1-on-1 with AgeWays’ Resource Specialists to connect with local resources
• Enjoy Lunch, with a side of inspiration:

The day will also include morning refreshments, giveaways, and a raffle!
