Celebrating Family Caregivers during National Family Caregivers Month enables all of us to:
Raise awareness of family caregiver issues
Celebrate the efforts of family caregivers
Educate family caregivers about self-identification
Increase support for family caregivers
In Montgomery County our 2021 theme is RENEWAL and our guests share:
- Words of wisdom for caregivers so they can discover new inner strength and community supports
- Creative ideas that could include art, music, lifelong learning etc.
- Practical examples that will help caregivers deal with “day-to-day” challenges.
- Updates on resources and tools.
- and much more.
