Let Us Help You: Caregiver Support: Support Group

Support groups offer family caregivers an opportunity to talk and share with others who have similar experiences and problems. Caregivers often find they not only receive emotional support, but they also get practical suggestions for dealing with difficult situations.

Caregiver support groups can make a positive difference in caregivers’ lives, and by extension, the people they are caring for.

Our Caregiver Support Group meets the last Tuesday of each month,
from 6:00pm-7:30pm at the Centre,
33 Ontario Street, in Lockport.

Call 716-433-1886 to register for this free support group.

One-on-one counseling is also available to caregivers by calling 716-433-1886. This is a free service available to adults in Niagara County.
