Support for Caregivers

Iowa State University Extension and Outreach is offering Powerful Tools for Caregivers, an evidence-based educational program that helps caregivers develop practical skills to reduce stress, improve communication, manage difficult emotions, and prioritize their own well-being while caring for others.

This six-week program is designed for family caregivers of adults with chronic conditions and parents or caregivers of children with special health and behavioral needs. Participants learn tools and strategies they can apply immediately to help them thrive in their caregiving role.

Learn more about upcoming classes and registration opportunities at https://go.iastate.edu/EIFSEH.  NOTE: Caregivers of cancer survivors may use the coupon code CANCERIOWA to waive the registration fee.

For more information about the program, visit the Health and Human Sciences Extension and Outreach website or contact Malisa Rader at mrader@iastate.edu or 515-708-0622.
