This group is for anyone who is caring for anyone who is sick, elderly or disabled. It is a tough job, and when you are also the spouse, child, parent or close friend, it adds a whole set of new challenges. Our Caregivers Group, facilitated by a licensed MSW, offers a little respite while letting you know you are not alone. This group will resume in September after a short summer break.
A support group for many of today’s toughest situations. Registration required before attending. Tuesdays at 10:00 a.m. Birmingham Campus.
