Caregiving

PCOA CAREGIVER SUPPORT GROUPS – NOVEMBER Five are currently being held by Zoom plus six in person.

Participation in the groups can be in person (6 groups), by telephone or by computer/tablet/smartphone w/ video. Support groups are a way to connect with others who are walking the journey of caregiving like you are. You get to SEE (if you use the video option) that you are not alone. You get to hear other’s challenges and successes, learn about helpful resources, know that your story matters and that you have been heard. Support groups are facilitated by a professional and are a safe place for you to express your concerns, frustrations, etc. and learn that others feel this way too. 11/15, 3rd Tuesday , 9–10:30am Virtual ON ZOOM 11/17, 3rd Thursday, 1:30–3pm Virtual ON ZOOM 11/21, 3rd Monday, 1–2:30pm (Midtown) In Person 11/22, 4th Tuesday , 9–10:30am (Southwest) In Person 11/28, 4th Monday, 11am–12:30pm Virtual ON ZOOM

NOVEMBER

“Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.”

To RSVP or if you have any questions, please contact: Tonetta Clay, Support Group Facilitator 520-305-3405, tclay@pcoa.org
