Caregiving can be rewarding, but it can also be overwhelming and challenging. It isn't always a job you have "signed up for" or even trained for, but a role that many of us findourselves in. Join COA Assistant Director Lauren Barretta for an 8-week course designed to introduce and explore some of the skills and tools needed for a better caregiving experience. Whether you are caring for a partner or a parent, handling the stress, emotional burden and practical logistics of the rold can be similar. Effective communication, setting health boundaries, and self-care skills are all part of caring for yourself as you care for someone else. Everyone benefits when a caregiver invests in his or her own wellbeing. Please call the COA beginning Monday, January 4th to register to receive your Zoom invitation.
