This presentation is designed for people who are new to caregiving for a family member or friend. It centres around the emotional impact of caring, potential challenges that may arise, and identifying sources of support along the journey. The Ontario Caregiver Organization provides resources to support caregivers at any step of the caregiving experience.

In this session presented by the Ontario Caregiver Organization, participants learn more about the caregiving experience, explore the best strategies for balancing work and caregiving, and gain access to resources focused on their needs.

This presentation aims to educate caregivers on the landscape of caregiving in Ontario as well as the difference between stress and burnout. In addition, we introduce the common signs and symptoms of both stress and burnout and provide strategies to support you.

This hands-on, interactive workshop is for family caregivers caring for people living with dementia. The overarching goal is for caregivers to feel more relaxed and grounded at the end of the workshop, and to learn 1 or more relaxation and meditation techniques to continue to use on their own.
