As family caregivers, we know how difficult it is to ask for help.
That is why, in May and November, we organize a Workshop at
the Wilde Conference Center at Fox C-6 School in Arnold, MO.
Here, we offer small group round table discussions with local professionals and
practical everyday caregivers who know what works. Companies demonstrate
equipment  that can help the caregiver provide the best care with the greatest of
ease.
This offers an opportunity to put a "face" with the "place."
When it is time to reach out for help,
there is a real human you met, a contact with
a familiar voice and smile.
SPECIAL NOTE: WE WILL NOT HOST A MAY 2009 WORKSHOP
A workshop may be coordinated for Autumn 2009.
Please e-mail us

if you are interested in participating in a Autumn Family Caregiver Workshop in
Arnold, MO. Thank you.
