The caregiver support group is open to the public and provides information and a welcoming environment for discussing the challenges of being a caregiver in the community. Each session begins with a light meal and fellowship at 5:00 p.m. The meetings are topic focused with a guest speaker and include time for sharing in the group.
Please join us for our monthly meeting to get
updated resources, information, and receive
support from other caregivers. Each meeting will
have new information related to caregiving and
guest speakers will be invited to speak on a variety
of topics. For more information, call 503.304.3432.
Support groups create a safe, confidential, supportive environment or community and a chance for participants to develop informal mutual support and social relationships. They also educate and inform participants about dementia and help participants develop methods and skills to solve problems.
The Dementia Support Group will provide education and
support to those who are part of the management and care of an individual
facing Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias. Everyone is welcome to
come and share concerns and issues in an open forum discussion or just
listen to others who are going through this overwhelming disease process.
