Join us for Session 2 of our Caregiver Series: Connecting with Community Care Agencies - Resources to Support Aging in Place. Discover how Connecticut’s community care agencies offer vital programs and services that help caregivers keep their loved ones safe, healthy, and independent at home. From in-home support to community-based resources, these services empower older adults to age with dignity in familiar surroundings.

The Southwestern Connecticut Agency on Aging (SWCAA) provides unbiased, accurate information to help meet the challenges of aging and disability in the community. Federal and State funding support SWCAA’s information specialists, which in turn allows referrals based on what you need rather than who will profit. Many of SWCAA’s services are provided free or at a sliding scale.
Caring for someone living with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia? You could be eligible to receive up to $2700 in respite care funding (including adult daycare) through the Stand By Me GUIDE Program at Connecticut Hospice – a new Medicare-funded program offering free, personalized support to individuals living with Alzheimer’s or other dementias—and their families.
