Feeling Stretched as a Caregiver? Powerful Tools for Caregivers is an educational series designed to provide caregivers with the tools they need to take care of those in their care while also taking care of themselves. The program is offered free of charge.

This program helps family caregivers reduce stress, improve self-confidence, better communicate feelings, balance their lives, increase their ability to make tough decisions, and locate helpful resources.

Classes consist of six sessions held once a week. Interactive lessons, discussions and brainstorming help caregivers take the “tools” they choose and put them into action. Participants receive a copy of The Caregiver Helpbook, developed specifically for the class.

Classes will be held every Thursday from 4:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., July 25 through August 29, in the Community Room of Crossroads Senior Apartments, 500 South Poplar Street in Seymour.
