Telephone Group Connection — Telephone Support Groups for Homebound Older Women
Many older women suffer from chronic health conditions that make it impossible to leave home. With mobility curtailed, these women feel lonely, isolated, overwhelmed, and forgotten.
Weekly telephone support groups led by a SOWN professional make a dramatic difference. Members connect on a personal level, regardless of their disabilities and challenges. They encourage and support one another while bringing renewed meaning and dignity back to their lives.
Caregiver to Caregiver Connection — 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.
