An 8-session group facilitated by past caregivers, COMPASS teaches caregivers how to take care of themselves.

Are you a family member or friend who provides care for someone living with disability, illness or age-related challenges? Then you are a "caregiver".

This series offers a focus on self-care with an opportunity to apply your own experiences as a caregiver. Each session will provide information, ideas, time for discussion, support and networking.

Topics will include: caregiver 'characteristics', emotional challenges, ways to care for the caregiver, communication skills, setting limits, sharing the care, preventing burnout and navigating the system.
