LIBERTY, NY — Powerful Tools for Caregivers, a free educational series designed to provide informal family caregivers with the tools needed to take care of themselves, will be offered by Cornell Cooperative Extension Sullivan County (CCESC) Caregiver Resource Center in six Friday sessions beginning May 12. Workshops will run from 10 a.m. to 12 noon at the Liberty Public Library on 189 North Main St. Refreshments will be provided.

Two experienced class leaders, Bonnie Lewis, RN, dependent-care educator at CCESC, and Lily Stettner, clinical social worker, will conduct the series. Classes will continue on May 19 and 26, and June 2, 9 and 23. Participants are highly encouraged to attend the series in its entirety.

Caregivers will be encouraged to borrow “The Caregiver Helpbook,” developed specifically for the class through the Ramapo Catskill Library System. These classes are supported by the New York State Caregiver Resource Program.

Registration is required in advance. Call 845/292-6180, email sullivan@cornell.edu, or visiting www.sullivancce.org.
