Powerful Tools for Caregivers is a class series designed to help family caregivers take better care of themselves while caring for a family member or friend.

Class participants also receive a copy of The Caregiver Helpbook, developed specifically for the class.

The six-week class will be offered every  Tuesday and Thursday starting on July 13, 15, 20, 22, 27, and 29 from 11-1 pm.
