Telephone Support Groups for Caregivers
Caring for someone with Alzheimer’s Disease or other chronic illness can be a 24-hour a day job that leaves little time for caregivers to connect with others or take time for themselves. Caregivers often become overwhelmed and depleted. In these specially designed SOWN telephone support groups, caregivers facing these unique challenges can receive valuable peer support, helpful ideas, resource information, and encouragement — without having to leave home.
“Caring for someone with Alzheimer's is a long lonely road. The group became a lifeline, and SOWN staff became friends who could finish my sentences for me and understand my problems like no others could.” — Pat
