Access Care Partners is partnering with community organizations in 2026 to help older adults gain confidence to better manage their health challenges through Healthy Living workshops. These FREE, evidence-based workshops are open to anyone with one or more long-term health conditions—such as diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, or chronic pain—as well as their caregivers and loved ones. Participants receive the information, motivation, and support needed to make meaningful lifestyle changes, feel more in control of their health, and know they are not alone. Workshops are offered in person or virtually.
A four-week workshop series (2 hours for each session), this workshop is for people with mild age-related memory challenges, Memory Training teaches memory-enhancing techniques and practical strategies to boost memory functioning. Not intended for people with dementia or Alzheimer’s.
A six-week workshop series (2.5 hours for each session), this workshop provides techniques such as healthy eating, relaxation techniques, communicating, goal-setting, problem solving, and more, to improve symptoms of chronic conditions.
An 8-session workshop series (2 hours for each session) taking place once per a week, this workshop teaches practical strategies to reduce the fear of falling and explores medical, behavioral, and environmental risk factors for falls, stressing the importance of developing an exercise plan.
Savvy Caregiver® is a class for family and friends caring for someone living with memory loss or Alzheimer’s disease.
For most family caregivers, caregiving is a new role and one for which training is needed-just as you would receive training for any new job. The Savvy Caregiver® Program helps caregivers better understand the changes their loved ones are experiencing, and how to best provide individualized care for them throughout the progression of Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. Participants will learn how to feel better about their caregiver role and how to care for themselves. The Savvy Caregiver® Program was developed by experts in caregiving techniques and goes beyond introductory educational offerings to provide clinical-level training for family caregivers.
