Atlanta Happy Healthy Caregiver Community - Family Caregiver Support Group
Our Atlanta area support group for family caregivers (previously called Daughterhood Atlanta) was featured in this Washington Post article! In 2024, we celebrated the 7 year anniversary of our Atlanta area caregiver support group. Starting in February 2024, our in-person support group meet ups have changed. We are now meeting as part of the Cobb & Cherokee ACAP (Adult Children of Aging Parents) chapter. Our ACAP chapter meets the third Thursday of every month. There are also other chapters in Georgia if you live outside Cobb and Cherokee counties.
In between meetups we share local resources, events, and ask questions in our private Facebook group. I invite you to join!
