An in-person class at Missoula Aging Services that teaches proven strategies to help caregivers with their own health and well-being, so that they can take better care of themselves and their loved ones. Powerful Tools for Caregivers meets on Tuesday, June 3 - July 8, from 10:30 am to 12 pm at MAS.

Powerful Tools for Caregivers® is an evidence-based curriculum designed to help family and community caregivers manage stress while caring for a relative or friend. Research shows that the classes improve self-care, emotional well-being, and self confidence of caregivers and help connect them to more community resources.

Registration is required and is first come, first served. An email confirmation with the information will be sent to registered participants one week prior to the session start date. This session is facilitated by Lauren Crabtree and Megan Fournier with Missoula Aging Services. For more information or assistance registering, contact Lauren Crabtree at lcrabtree@missoulaagingservices.org or 406-728-7682.

This class will not focus on specific diseases or hands-on caregiving for the care receiver. No professional caregivers, please.
