The Area Agency on Aging the with Lutheran Sunset Ministries is partnering another Stress Busting Program for Family Caregivers of Persons with Alzheimer’s Disease and Other Dementias.  The Stress-Busting Program for Family Caregivers (SBP) is an evidence-based program that has proven to improve the quality of life of family caregivers and help caregivers manage their stress and cope better with their lives.  The program is taught to small groups of caregivers (four to eight) who are caring for someone with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias. The program is focused on education, support, problem-solving, and stress management.  Participants meet for nine weeks for 90 minutes per week.  Free respite care will be available during the program, if needed.

The program will be offered May 5 – June 23, from 9:00am-10:30am at Meridian Manor.  Call Ann Nowell to register at 254-315-8872.
