Powerful Tools for Caregivers, an educational series designed to provide family caregivers with the tools they need to take care of themselves, will be held from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Wednesdays, beginning Oct. 14, at First Christian Church, 615 E. Beau St., Washington.
The six-session program helps family caregivers reduce stress, improve self-confidence, communicate feelings better, balance their lives, increase their ability to make tough decisions and locate helpful resources.
Two experienced class leaders will conduct the series, which will include interactive lessons, discussions and brainstorming. Participants also will receive “The Caregiver Helpbook,” which was developed specifically for the class.
For more information or to register, contact Michelle Rockwell at 724-223-5115, ext. 615, or mrockwell@tripil.com. Class size is limited, and registration is required.
The series is being co-sponsored by Southwestern Pennsylvania Area Agency on Aging, Pennsylvania Link to Aging and Disability Resources and First Christian Church of Washington.
