Caregiver Support Groups

As a caregiver, you likely have many responsibilities. It is important to take care of your own well-being and to connect with others that understand.

Alzheimer’s Association® caregiver support groups, conducted by trained facilitators, are a safe place for caregivers, family and friends of persons with dementia to:

• Develop a support system
• Exchange practical information on caregiving challenges & possible solutions
• Talk through issues and ways of coping
• Share feelings, needs and concerns
• Learn about community resources
