Book Chat For Caregiver Support Groups

This program is for groups that have read “In Stroke’s Shadow” and want to share their perspectives within a safe, supportive community. This is ideal for new and existing caregiver support groups, and affinity groups that come together around caregiver issues, and groups interested in providing an impetus to start their own discussion about this increasingly relevant topic. The Book Discussion Guide helps participants open up about the unique challenges they face.
