Powerful Tools for Caregivers (PTC) classes help caregivers take better care of
themselves while caring for a friend or relative. If you provide care for an adult with a chronic illness; at home or in a care facility, whether down the block
or miles away, yours is an important role. This course is for family caregivers
like you!
This program is for non-professional caregivers.
Participating in a virtual class requires that
