Are you a caregiver of someone who suffers from Alzheimer's? Are you looking for support as you support your loved one? If so, consider joining the Alzheimer's Caregiver Support Group offered through Positive Directions!⁠

Our Alzheimer caregivers’ support group is a lifeline for families. It is a place to turn to for advice and encouragement to help feel connected and give caregivers a sense of belonging and purpose. The group helps put our own experiences living with dementia in perspective and provides support and encouragement to move beyond a diagnosis. We share feelings confidentially, make friends, get help navigating the health care and legal systems, and learn from one another.⁠
