Caregiver Wellness & Respite Center
A plan for healthy caregiving can change your outlook and your heart. Let us give you the tools.
Caring for a loved one can be both fulfilling and challenging. Through training, education, supportive community groups, and other resources, you’ll enhance your wellbeing while supporting those who mean so much to you. The Caregiver Wellness and Respite Center is focused on the needs of family caregivers in the North Country— Franklin, Clinton, Essex, Washington, Warren, and Hamilton Counties. There is never a charge for any of our programs.
Help Paying for a Respite Provider
Once approved, caregivers have the power to hire and train their own respite providers, which could be an agency, individual contractor, or even a family member or friend.
Supportive Community Groups
No one understands the journey of family caregiving like other caregivers. We’re bringing your neighbors together through these virtual supportive group sessions where you can engage, share, and learn from other caregivers in your own community.
Classes for Becoming a Healthier Caregiver
We all know that in order to do a better job, we need the right tools. That’s why we offer the Powerful Tools for Caregivers series, designed to help family caregivers take care of themselves as they dedicate their lives to caring for a loved one. This series of classes will help you manage your emotions, gain self-confidence, discover resources, and learn self-care behaviors.
