Caregiving Tips

November is National Family Caregiver Month, and Elizabeth Miller is sharing some resources with the community:

The November Atlanta Daughterhood Circle (a social support group for family caregivers) is Tuesday, November 28 at 6:30 p.m. at UnWine’d & Tap in Marietta. Email to RSVP — elizabeth@happyhealthycaregiver.com.
Elizabeth has launched the Happy Healthy Caregiver podcast, which should be available on all the podcast platforms and through the website.
Another resource for family caregivers is the National Caregiving Conference November 10-11 in Chicago. Elizabeth will be speaking at this event. While Cobb residents may not be able to get to Chicago in person, they can register to attend virtually at https://www.caregiving.com/ncc17/register/.
