Virtual Support Group- Caregiver of Aging Loved Ones

Monday 02/16/2026 03:00 PM - 04:30 PM
Virtual

Are you caring for an aging loved one? You don’t have to go through it alone. Join our Caregiver Support Group to connect with others who understand the challenges and rewards of caregiving. Whether you're managing medical needs, providing daily support, or simply seeking emotional encouragement, this group offers a safe space to share experiences, resources, and advice.
Group Moderator: Deana Liss, Elderwerks Executive Director

Elderwerks Book Club

Tuesday 02/17/2026 10:00 AM - 11:15 AM
Virtual

Join us for a free, virtual interactive book club! New chapters are read together out loud during each book club session followed by a discussion about the material. This means you can join any time and can be included even if you cannot read the material on your own. In addition, we share information about other books we have read. Enjoy a hot cup of coffee, good conversation, and warm up to new friends. We collaborate on which books we choose. This is not meant to be a support group, although we are supportive of each other. This is a different kind of book club. Feel free to join us and try the experience out. We realize this group may not be for everyone, but everyone is welcome. Buy, or borrow the book from your local library, or it can be found on Amazon.

This club meets on the first and third Tuesday of each month at 10:00 AM and will be held via virtual meeting until further notice. New members always welcome!

Facilitated by Kathleen Kenney, LCSW, CADC
Barrington Behavioral Health & Wellness

The Let Them Theory can be found at your library, store, and on Amazon. The book will be read individually and will not be shared onscreen.
There is no cost to join the conversation, however registration is required. Once registered, the link to join virtually will be emailed to you prior to each book club session.
