CaregiverU is a collaboration of Central Texas non-profit agencies to provide support and resources to families caring for an older loved one. The six-week course is offered in churches, libraries and community centers throughout Central Texas. The tuition for the courses is covered through a grant from St. David’s Foundation and curriculum materials are provided by Area Agency on Aging of the Capital Area. The curriculum, Powerful Tools for Caregivers is a series of classes designed to empower family caregivers of older adults by helping them reduce stress, improve caregiving confidence, establish balance in their lives, communicate their needs, make tough decisions and locate helpful resources.
