About the Caregiver Support Group:
We provide a judgement free environment where caregivers, family and friends of loved ones with chronic health conditions come to:

• · Exchange practical information on caregiving problems and possible solutions
• · Talk through challenges and ways of coping
• · Share feelings, needs and concerns
• · Learn about resources and support services available in your community

The group meets in-person every 2nd Wednesday of the month 6:00-7:00 pm at the Greenbelt Community Center 15 Crescent Road.

The group meets virtually every 3rd Wednesday, 2-3 pm.

What the Memory Café offers:

• A great opportunity for lively discussions, socializing, information gathering, refreshments, camaraderie, and engaging creative fun!  
• An opportunity for the caregiver and their loved one to work together to highlight  activities that members can still participate in, with the goal that this will spark some interest in activities that can be continued in a home setting.
