Leaders: Megan Reed, Dementia Resource Specialist and Kristina Ward, Certified Savvy Caregiver Instructor

The Savvy Caregiver program is a 6-week evidence-based training program for caregivers who care for someone with Alzheimer’s or related dementias. Caregivers will be urged to learn, develop and modify their strategies so they can accomplish their role of caregiving- which includes the contented involvement of the person they care for. The program builds information and knowledge about the illness, developing skills to manage daily life, and fosters a different attitude towards caregiving.  

The meetings will be held virtually on Tuesdays, 2-4 pm – January 10, 17, 24, 31, February 7 and 14.  The program is most beneficial and allows people to share stories in a safe environment when people attend the entire program.
