Virtual Powerful Tools for Caregivers
This virtual class series on Zoom is designed to help caregivers look after themselves while caring for a friend or relative.
Powerful Tools for Caregivers® is an evidence-based curriculum designed to help family and community caregivers learn to take better care of themselves and manage their stress while caring for a relative or friend. Research shows that the classes improve self-care behavior, emotion management, and self-confidence of caregivers and connect them to more community resources.
