Sharing this free workshop happening in Pictou October 7 and 14! Please reach out to the organizers for more information.

Caring for the Caregiver is a psychoeducational program that was made to help increase understanding of caregiver burnout and recognize its potential impact, while also validating people’s lived experiences as caregivers. During the program strategies will be discussed as to how caregivers can support themselves and those they provide care for, including discussion of caregiver supports available locally and online.
This workshop takes place at the Pictou Library (99 Water Street, Pictou) October 7th and 14th from 10am-12pm.
