The Chicago Department of Senior Services has joined forces with the Salvation Army to offer tele-support groups for caregivers. Caregivers can call in twice a month and share their experiences, frustrations, and knowledge with each other
Research has shown that sharing feelings with others who were in a similar situation can reduce stress, increase self-esteem, and improve relationships with others. That is why support groups can be so valuable.
In order to participate in the tele-support groups, which are available the first and third Wednesday of every month from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. CST take the following steps:
Step 1: dial 1 -- 866 -- 212 -- 0875.
Step 2: enter pass code: 932974#
Step 3: share your name with the group
