If you regularly care for a loved one with a chronic illness, the Caregiver Coalition of Northeast Florida is here to help you! ElderSource is proud to be a founding member of this Coalition, a group of Northeast Florida organizations united to serve the needs of family caregivers.

Our programs and services help you navigate the different support options available so you can provide the best possible care, as well as care for yourself!

Our Coalition programs include:

Caring for the Caregiver – This free workshop helps caregivers learn ways to care for themselves and loved ones, as well as meet fellow caregivers, share stories and build friendships. Workshops are held several times a year and feature complimentary breakfast and lunch, and adult day care services.

Caregiver Connections – This monthly e-newsletter is your connection to practical caregiving tips and news on community events to support you as a caregiver.  There’s no cost or obligation to subscribe to Caregiver Connections, and you can unsubscribe at any time. Subscribe now.
