SUMMARY:Caring at Home: Getting Connected in the Home and Community Support Sector
DESCRIPTION:As a caregiver\, it can be challenging to understand what is available to support you when caring for family members and friends in the community.

Join our webinar to:\n• Hear the lived experience from a caregiver and their insights into challenges and solutions when caring for someone living at home in the community\n• Listen to Deborah Simon\, Chief Executive Officer\, Ontario Community Support Association\, as she provides an overview of the home and community\nsupport sector in Ontario\, and find out about supports that exist in the community with options for care recipients and caregivers\n• Learn practical tips when communicating with providers within the home and community sector to help equip caregivers with supportive tools to problem solve\nRegister for a chance to win an OCO water bottle! Learn more at Eventbrite. \n• Please note that this presentation is available in English only.\n• Pour de l’information sur nos programmes et services en français\, visitez www.aidantsontario.ca ou communiquez avec nous par courriel à info@ontariocaregiver.ca.\n• For any difficulty with registration or any other questions\, please contact us at info@ontariocaregiver.ca or call 1-888-877-1626 X 1011 \nOntario Community Support Association: \nWebsite: https://www.ocsa.on.ca\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/OntarioCommunitySupportAssociation\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/OCSAtweets
