SUMMARY:Caregiver Support Group — You Don’t Have to Do This Alone
DESCRIPTION:Are you caring for a partner/spouse\, older family member or older loved one and finding that the responsibility can feel heavy and lonely at times? Caregiving is an act of love\, but it can also be emotionally and physically demanding.

Our Caregiver Support Group offers a welcoming\, compassionate space for caregivers to connect with others who understand the unique challenges and rewards of this role. \nWhat this group offers: \n\nA supportive\, judgment-free environment to share experiences and feelings\nConnection with other caregivers who truly understand what you’re going through\nPractical guidance\, encouragement\, and helpful resources\nA sense of relief that comes from being heard\, understood\, and supported\n\nThe group meets on the fourth Tuesday of each month from 3 – 4 p.m. via Zoom. The group is free and open to the public. For questions\, contact Tara at 763-300-3146 or tburns@jfcsmn.org.

SUMMARY:Dementia Caregiver Connect
DESCRIPTION:JFCS Dementia Caregiver Connect is a twice monthly “drop-in” program for caregivers of people living with dementia or experiencing memory loss. \n\nUpcoming sessions of Dementia Caregiver Connect will be held : \nMay 13 & 27\, June 10 & 24\, July 15 & 29\, August 12 & 26\n10 – 11:30 a.m.\nJFCS – 5905 Golden Valley Rd.\nThis is a drop in event\, no RSVP required. \nIf you have picked up a prescription\, brought over dinner\, given a ride to the doctor\, taken care of an errand\, or made decisions big or small on behalf of a family member or friend\, you are a caregiver. \nParticipants in this program will have an opportunity to share experiences and receive guidance and education about topics relevant to caregiving. Sometimes the caregiving journey can feel lonely—the intention of this program is to provide a safe place to receive support and connect with other caregivers. \nStaff from JFCS Senior Services will facilitate the group sessions\, provide support\, and answer resource-related questions. Refreshments will be served. \nFor more information on Dementia Caregiver Connect\, contact Jeanne Schuller at jschuller@jfcsmn.org or 952-542-4836.
