The content of this solution-focused support group is driven by the participants, with an emphasis on the unique experiences and challenges of young carers (16 to 40 years old).

Group Objectives:

• To enhance existing knowledge of dementia and/or mild cognitive impairment, including resources and supports available.
• To share insights and experiences related to our personal caregiving journeys with peers in a supportive environment.​
• To explore balancing caregiving with other areas of our lives, such as school, work, socializing, extra-curricular activities, and starting a family of our own.
• To acquire strategies related to self-care and care for our loved ones. ​
• To set the agenda and suggest topics for future discussion. 

Each group session will begin with a review of group rules and a short grounding exercise,  followed by a care-and-share.

Group meets every 3rd Tuesday of every month online using Zoom.  

Registration is required.
