If a loved one has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia, a caregiver support group can offer you an opportunity to connect with others. In this facilitated support group, participants will connect with each other as they experience mindfulness practices designed to open the heart to compassionate caring and resiliency. Participants will discuss new information, share stories and discover a deepening connection with their growing caregiver community. Our Scotts Valley caregiver support group meets on the second Saturday of each month.
Support groups create a safe, confidential, supportive environment or community and a chance for participants to develop informal mutual support and social relationships. They also educate and inform participants about dementia and help participants develop methods and skills to solve problems.
THIS SUPPORT GROUP MEETING WILL BE OFFERED BY ZOOM AND PHONE. Register: https://www.communityresourcefinder.org/ResourceView/Index?id=2738235&profileDefinitionId=91
Family Caregiver Support Groups are not for the person with the diagnosis.
Once you complete registration for the meeting, you will receive an email confirmation with the call-in information and instructions for joining our call.
If you have additional questions or need further assistance, please feel free to call the Alzheimer’s Association at 1.800.272.3900.
