The American Liver Foundation offers this support network for people who are caregivers for loved ones with liver disease or who have had or need liver transplants.
Caregivers shoulder many responsibilities that can lead to feelings of stress, sadness, isolation, and fatigue. Sharing the Journey with other caregivers will provide a compassionate environment in which you can give and receive support, reduce feelings of isolation, and find ways to cope with the challenges of caregiving.
All sessions will be facilitated by a licensed social worker. You must be aged 18 or older to participate. There is no fee to join.
Groups will meet on the first Thursday of each month via Zoom from 6:30 – 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
