Wanna
know more about Improv for Caregivers?
At Improv for Caregivers, we know you want an easygoing relationship
with your loved one. Caregiving for
someone with Alzheimers or dementia is a heavy burden with daily
responsibilities that can feel overwhelming, depleting, and unappreciated. You
need support in navigating these difficult circumstances, but its hard to find
anything that really makes a difference. Thats why we started Improv for Caregivers,
a workshop that blends therapeutic techniques and improvisational comedy
activities to help caregivers cultivate
ease, joy, and flexibility in their relationships and feel more hopeful. In our
interactive workshops, youll have fun developing a skill set that helps you
communicate in new ways, understand your loved ones changing perspective,
diffuse challenging behavior, and cope with the stress of it all. When you
learn improv skills for caregiving, youll worry less, laugh more, and find joy
in the everyday with your loved ones.
This program is free for family caregivers and generously funded by The AWARE Fund
of The Dallas Foundation and The Next50 Initiative.
Join us every second Wednesday morning from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. for a delightful experience filled with delicious chef-prepared breakfast, engaging networking, and an uplifting power devotion that will kick-start your day on the right note.RSVP to Anne at (214) 532-3222 or ahinson@harborchase.com
