Virtual Caregiver Support Group

Topic: Self-care for Caregivers

April 25, 2024 at 7 PM PT

Caring for a beloved companion animal who has special needs, or a chronic or life-limiting illness is an act of love and comes with challenges and frustrations. While we lovingly provide care to our cherished companions, it can also be a confusing, tiring, overwhelming, and isolating experience. The Caregiver Support Group is a space where people can connect to learn about topics relevant to caring for a companion, as well as yourself, and to find support in community with others.
