Caregiver Support Group at Blue Ridge Church   Our support group is for all who are caring for an older adult. Sometimes they come to live with us in our home; sometimes they live next door, or across town or across the country.


Our Caregiver Support Group meets on the first Wednesday of each month at 2:00 pm. the group is intended as a guide for the challenging issues that face caregivers. We call on various speakers in their noted fields to discuss issues that are pertinent to the group. We provide emotional support and information about community services that are available for more in-depth help and support.

Participation in a support group is designed to help normalize the experience of care giving and decrease feelings of burden.

Our hope is that "Equipping the Caregiver" will help neutralize the stress of care giving and make caregivers feel more hopeful.

For more information please call the Blue Ridge United Methodist Church at 816-353-1435 or the coordinator,  Dianne Morris at 816-353-3155.
