A new Alzheimer’s Caregivers Support Group is starting in the Jim Thorpe/Penn Forest Township area.

Meetings will take place at Christ Lutheran Church, 189 Church Road in Penn Forest at 6 p.m. on the second Monday of every month.

Those who care for a loved one with Alzheimer’s or dementia are welcome to join.

The support group will be conducted by trained facilitators to develop a support system, exchange practical information on caregiving challenges and possible solutions, talk through issues and ways of coping, share feelings, needs and concerns and learn about community resources.”

The support group is sponsored by the Alzheimer’s Association.
