Our 23rd Celebration of National Family Caregiver Month gave us all permission to take a breather. Our 2023 events were designed to help us learn about the power of putting things on pause. We hope you enjoyed slowing down, having a bit of fun, and practicing self-care. If you missed this year’s offerings or want to revisit them, here they are below. We hope they energize you and bring you more joy.
