GRANDPARENT & CAREGIVER SUPPORT GROUP

You care for others. Let us care for you. ❤️

Being a grandparent or caregiver can come with challenges, joys, questions, and sometimes moments when you simply need someone who understands. You don’t have to walk this journey alone.

Join us for our Grandparent & Caregiver Support Group—a welcoming place to connect, share, encourage, and find support with others who understand what it’s like to care for a child.

📅 September 17, 2026
⏰ 10:00 AM–12:00 PM
📍 Johnson County Public Library
🍽️ Light lunch will be provided

Come share your experiences, meet others, learn about available resources, and take some time for YOU.

You are not alone. You are supported. You matter. 💕

🌿 Encouragement. Connection. Support.
