Support Groups

While support groups are not for everyone, they are a valuable resource for information and education, in addition to providing emotional support for peers.

Caregivers and seniors are encouraged to attend the appropriate groups. Several of the Council-sponsored groups are facilitated by GCCOA staff, and reminder cards are sent out when names/addresses are shared. Reservations are required, and space is limited.

Current GCCOA support groups:

~ Caregivers Support Groups - Individuals Caring for an Older Loved One

~ Parkinson's Individuals and Caregivers of those with Parkinson's Disease

~ Grief

~ Kinship Caregivers / Grandparents Raising Grandchildren

Additional in-person and online groups are offered through other organizations. If you are in search of another type of group, have questions or would like to make a reservation for a group, please contact us.
