Caregivers—if you’re tired, overwhelmed, or just need support, this is for you.

Let’s welcome January 2026 with compassion toward ourselves.
Setting intentions that support you over the next year can help prevent burnout.

Caregiver Connections welcomes anyone who considers themselves a caregiver—whether you support a loved one with addictions or mental health concerns (including but not limited to depression, anxiety, BPD, ADHD, Alzheimer’s), or you’re caring for teenagers who are giving you a run for your money.

This is a safe, supportive space grounded in lived experience.

We meet monthly for breakfast, and also online for those with limited transportation.
There is no pressure to share—this is your space to connect, listen, and receive support in whatever way feels right for you.

Why not add one more layer of support?

We had a great time at the U of A Augustana campus setting up our new wellness and self care board for students.

The display shares information and resources on how CMHA Recovery College Camrose can support student mental health, along with an interactive activity where everyone can add their own self care ideas and learn from the ideas shared by others. It is a simple way to boost connection on campus and keep the conversation about mental health moving.

A heartfelt thank you to Dylan Draker, Wellness Coordinator and Campus Assistant, for welcoming us and making this possible!

The board will stay up until exams wrap up and the holiday break begins.

We look forward to seeing all the thoughtful self care strategies that students contribute.
