Powerful Tools for Caregivers - class schedule



Powerful Tools for Caregivers

"I cannot recommend highly enough the 'Powerful Tools for Caregivers' training program... developed in Portland, Oregon."

Gail Sheehy, Passages in Caregiving

Powerful Tools for Caregivers is a 6-week educational series designed to help unpaid family caregivers take care of themselves while caring for a relative or friend with a chronic illness. Caregivers develop a wealth of self-care tools to reduce personal stress, communicate their needs effectively in challenging situations, deal with difficult emotions, and make tough caregiving decisions. You will benefit from this class whether you are helping a parent, spouse, friend, someone who lives at home, in a nursing home, or across the country. Class size is limited, and registration is required – call the number listed by the class you wish to attend. (*Suggested donation of $25 to help defray cost of the book – but not required in order to attend class).
