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. In–person support group participants are required to wear masks and social distance. 11/15, Monday, 1–2:30pm (Midtown) IN PERSON 11/16, Tuesday , 9–10:30am * Virtual ON ZOOM 11/18, Thursday, 1:30–3pm (Midtown) IN PERSON
