• Understand the impact of dementia on both you and the person you are caring for.
• Learn the skills you need to manage daily life.
• Take control and set goals.
• Communicate more effectively.
• Strengthen family resources.
• Feel better about your caregiving.
• Take care of you!

This workshop will take place on Fridays, February 28 – April 18, 2025, at the Cape Ann YMCA. Participants should plan to attend all six sessions of the workshop. (The group will not meet on March 7 or April 4.)
