LeRoy Pennysaver & News

LE ROY PENNYSAVER & NEWS - SEPTEMBER 23, 2018 Volunteers Needed to Lead Support Groups Submitted by: Monica Pomeroy People who really listen to others are gifted with compassion and empathy, and the Alzheimer’s Association Western New York is looking for volunteers willing to share those gifts! Every month, the Association’s Western New York Chapter oversees close to three dozen support groups for caregivers of individuals with dementia, including four such meetings across Genesee County. These groups are led by Chapter-trained facilitators who provide a vital service by encouraging caregivers to share their concerns, find support among their peers and hear advice about providing the best care they can from others in a similar situation. The Chapter is looking to provide free training for volunteers to lead monthly support group meetings in Batavia and LeRoy. If you are interested in sharing your time in a meaningful, rewarding and vital way, please call Marie Baun at the WNY Chapter between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Monday Through Friday at (716) 626-0600 extension 8994. Marie can also be reached via email at MBaun@alz.org.
