SUMMARY:Cultural Perspectives on Caregiving: Stories of Strength & Support
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an insightful webinar hosted by the Ontario Caregiver Organization (OCO) in collaboration with Indus Community Services\, and The Region of Peel Senior Services Development. This webinar will take a closer look at how caregiving is experienced across different cultures. You’ll hear first-hand from a caregiver in the Punjabi community about their personal story and gain a deeper understanding of the cultural values and norms that shape caregiving perspectives. \nIn this session\, we’ll explore:\n• The inspiring work of Indus Community Services in supporting caregivers within their cultural context\n• The vital role caregivers play in the diverse communities of Ontario\, with a spotlight on the Punjabi community in Peel\, illustrated through a caregiver’s own journey and experience\n• The newly adapted ‘I am a Caregiver’ toolkits from OCO\, which are now available to download for free. They’re designed to empower and support caregivers from all backgrounds. \nOur Speakers:\nIndus Community Services is an accredited\, not-for-profit community benefit organization that has served local communities for 40 years. The agency is a registered charity supported by its donors and by all three levels of government. Indus\, through its professional staff of 150+ personnel\, are leaders in providing culturally appropriate services to newcomers\, families\, women and seniors. \nRegion of Peel Building Caregiver Capacity Collaborative (BCCC) and Social Prescribing Pilot: Region of Peel (ROP) has been delivering a wide range of resident focused programs and services to enhance Peel’s communities for over 50 years.
