The Center for Modern Aging Princeton (CMAP) is proud to announce a special Lunch & Learn: Long-Distance Caregivers event, happening on Friday, February 21, from noon to 1:00 p.m. This free hybrid event, held both in-person at CMAP’s Nancy S. Klath Center for Lifelong Learning location and via Zoom, honors National Caregivers’ Day by providing essential support and resources for those caring for loved ones from afar.
Long-distance caregiving presents unique challenges, often leaving caregivers feeling overwhelmed with concerns about their loved ones' well-being, coupled with feelings of guilt and helplessness. This workshop, led by Chris Kellogg of NightengaleNJ, will explore practical tools, local resources, and proven strategies to help caregivers maintain their loved ones' dignity and independence while finding peace of mind for themselves.
