MORRIS COUNTY — In a community-centered effort to support those who give so much of themselves, the West Morris Area YMCA will host a special event, “Caring for the Caregiver,” on Wednesday, November 13, from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. This free presentation, led by caregiver resource expert Robin Ennis, is aimed at offering valuable resources, practical tips, and a sense of community for those providing essential care to family members, friends, or neighbors in need.

Held at the YMCA on Dover Chester Road in Randolph, the event invites anyone who finds themselves in the role of a caregiver—whether they’re helping an aging parent, supporting a loved one with disabilities, or simply running errands for a friend in need. The presentation will touch on the emotional, physical, and logistical challenges caregivers face daily, guiding on managing responsibilities while also caring for their well-being.

Ennis, a recognized Caregiver Resource & Information Specialist, will offer insights into navigating the demands of caregiving. Attendees will learn strategies for managing stress, balancing personal life with caregiving duties, and connecting with local resources to lighten their load. With so many community members quietly dedicating their lives to helping others, the event serves as a heartfelt reminder that caregivers, too, need support.

For those who may have difficulty finding time to attend, the YMCA has made registration simple by clicking here. Caregivers are encouraged to RSVP and reserve their spot as a way to take just one hour for themselves—a small but meaningful step in their journey.

The “Caring for the Caregiver” event is a chance for the community to come together, acknowledge the tireless work of caregivers, and ensure they feel as supported as the loved ones they care for.
