SUMMARY:Calling All Caregivers End of Life Care with Jane Barton
DESCRIPTION:When contemplating your ultimate demise\, it’s obvious that many things are beyond your control. There’s no way to know what will ultimately pave the way to your final exit. However\, that doesn’t mean you should abdicate all responsibilities related to your ultimate ending. To do so could likely lead to a very distressing situation for you\, your family\, and your medical team. Thus\, you and yours are much better served by considering the future “what ifs” and your medical preferences. Furthermore\, reflect on what truly makes life worth living. What constitutes an acceptable quality of life? Upon answering the question\, share your reflections with those responsible for your care. Your preferences will lay the groundwork for an exit strategy that serves all concerned quite well. The program is FREE. Registration is REQUIRED. Click on the LINK to register.

SUMMARY:The Afterglow of Adversity Lunch & Learn with Jane Barton
DESCRIPTION:When have you learned the most about yourself and about life? More than likely\, it’s the times of trial and tribulation that informed and influenced your journey the most. Adversity pushes us beyond our previously perceived limits—our comfort zone. The death of loved one. The diagnosis of a serious illness. Grieving significant losses. Termination of employment. Imprisonment. Challenged by life\, we can choose to be diminished by life OR emboldened. When considering the choices made by Sheryl Sandberg\, Viktor Frankl\, and Nelson Mandela\, we realize that adversity often serves as a segue to positive transformation. Please join us to explore the afterglow of adversity—the opportunity to rise strong (a la Brene Brown)! The program is FREE. Registration is REQUIRED. Click on the LINK to register.

In the afternoon\, you’ll have the chance to meet with providers\, organizations and advocacy groups that provide actionable support for loved ones with disabilities and their families. \nAdmission is FREE with the donation of a canned good and/or personal care item to support our local communities.
