Good Hope Branch

Community Room

Shared storytelling can connect us, teach us, and help us navigate the joys and challenges of family caregiving.

The Milwaukee Coalition for African American Caregivers invites you to explore different stages of caregiving through powerful stories from caregivers in your community. After listening to these lived experiences, you will have an opportunity to reflect on where you are in your own caregiving journey and explore resources that are available to help you move through your journey with hope and support.

Lunch will be provided.
