GATHER AND GIVE BACK

Join us for a special luncheon and conversation honoring the people who care for an older adult they love. As caregivers, none of us get it right every time. We reach our limits, react under stress, and sometimes fall short of being the caregiver we want to be. But what if we could respond to those moments with greater understanding?

Tuesday, November 3, 2026 • 11am–1pm
Evanston Public Library, 1703 Orrington Avenue, Evanston, IL
Free. Lunch included. Registration required and space is limited.
