Community Hospice and Stanislaus Aging & Veteran Services partner to host the 3rd Annual Stanislaus County Caregiver Resource Fair 

Community Hospice and Stanislaus Aging & Veteran Services partner to host the 3rd Annual Stanislaus County Caregiver Resource Fair 

Hosted by Community Hospice and Stanislaus County Aging & Veteran Services, the 3rd Annual Stanislaus County Caregiver Resource Fair will be held at the Stanislaus Veterans Center on Saturday, March 30, 2019 from 8:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m., featuring a free continental breakfast, community vendors, health screenings, opportunity prizes, and education workshops including three speakers, all free of charge.

For the past two years, this annual event has received outstanding support from the Stanislaus County community, allowing us to continue to provide caregivers and the general community with the opportunity to participate in educational workshops and to consult and de-stress with professionals and peers. Our vision is to not only attempt to reduce the overwhelming stresses and pressures that accompany being a caregiver but to also provide the opportunity for leaders in the community to network and build relationships and solutions to common barriers that caregivers face. The fair is tailored to caregivers but seniors and others in the community may find support at the fair as well. We hope to see you there!
