You Are Not Alone: Join the Parent and Caregiver Connection on August 19

8/6/2025

Caring for someone with an intellectual or developmental disability (I/DD) is a journey filled with love, challenges, and questions. Whether you're a parent, grandparent, sibling, or caregiver, you deserve support, understanding, and the chance to connect with others who truly “get it.”

Join us at LIFE Mower County on Tuesday, August 19, 2025, from 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM for a special edition of our Parent and Caregiver Connection. This relaxed and welcoming gathering is a safe space to share stories, ask questions, and build connections with others who walk a similar path. You'll leave feeling heard, supported, and—most importantly—not alone.

​We’re excited to welcome a guest presentation by NAMI Southeast Minnesota (National Alliance on Mental Illness). Together, we’ll explore:
  • Coping strategies for daily challenges
  • Mental health resources available in our area
  • Self-care practices that caregivers often overlook—but desperately need

This event is free for both members and non-members, and it's open to caregivers and family members of all ages and life stages.

📍 Location: LIFE Mower County
💵 Fee: FREE for all
📅 Date: Tuesday, August 19, 2025
🕕 Time: 6:00 PM – 7:30 PM

Please pre-register to help us plan for seating and materials. Contact Jamey at 507-473-4832 or [email protected].

Come as you are. Leave with support, resources, and a renewed sense of connection.
