This ongoing monthly, in-person support group provides an opportunity for people caring for a person living with dementia to come together and support each other through the caregiving experience. The goals of this group are to share personal feelings, increase our repertoire of coping strategies, feel less alone, and increase awareness of resources and supports in the community.

Topics for discussion will be tailored to group needs, and may include:

• Managing stress
• Ambiguous loss
• Anticipatory grief
• Guilt
• Family dynamics
• Self-care
• Understanding responsive behaviors
• Long-term care. 

 

This is an in-person support group.

For the safety of participants and our staff, we promote a mask friendly environment 

• Maximum group size is 14, 12 group participants and 2 staff
• If you have symptoms please stay home, please contact Jahnoah at 647-460-7587 or by email at JWood@alz.to to let us know that you can’t make it
