Caregiver support
We’re here for you.
Caring for a loved one diagnosed with dementia can be hard. It can be difficult to know when to intervene, what services are available, how to choose the right care environment, and how to cope with the day-to-day challenges that arise from dementia — all while maintaining your own life.
Support groups
Hearts & Minds Activity Center is committed to caregiver empowerment, assistance, and education. We provide a number of support groups, all of which are open to the public and free of charge. Our support groups offer a welcoming and supportive environment and are led by caring, compassionate, and experienced volunteers.
If you would like more information or are interested in attending any of our support groups or quarterly seminars, please contact us at (408) 279-7515.
I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate the Zoom sessions. May is wonderful. My husband happily says hello to her whenever we log in and although he doesn’t actively participate he watches, laughs and makes funny faces from time to time. I’ve enjoyed them as well and actually learned quite a bit, both from May and from the interesting things she shares. The Zoom sessions have also helped me cope. Seeing a friendly, understanding face is a lifeline. This service has added a much-needed structure – and friendly faces – to our days.
