Free Day Off for Metro Detroit Caregivers with Loved Ones with Dementia

The Dorothy and Peter Brown Jewish Community Adult Day Program will again host their increasingly popular Caregivers Day Off, a free event for Metro Detroiters who take care of loved ones living with dementia to take care of themselves. The event on Sunday, November 10 will offer yoga, massage, music therapy, delicious food, plus educational activities designed to provide insight, resources and support to caregivers, from 10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Soul Café (5586 Drake Road, West Bloomfield). Prior to the day’s events, at 10 a.m. caregivers will be able to drop their loved ones off at the nearby Brown Program (6720 W. Maple Rd, West Bloomfield) where they will be taken care of by expert staff, given snacks and lunch, and experience special programming including music, games, and more. To register for the program, which has limited spaces, call Sharilyn Rowe at 248-592-5032 by Oct. 30 or email her at srowe@jslmi.org. Verbal confirmation is required for registration to be complete.
