SUPPORT GROUPS

Dementia Support Group

Arborlawn hosts a gathering of those who are caring for a loved one struggling with dementia. We meet to remember the loved ones as well as their caregivers. This group offers a safe and confidential space for caregivers to share experiences without fear of judgment, to receive emotional support, and to learn from each other, helping caregivers feel less isolated, manage stress, and gain valuable insights into navigating the similar challenges of dementia care. No two paths are the same, yet we meet each other where we are on this unexpected, difficult journey and are heard. If you are interested in participating or want to learn more about this group, please contact Karen White-Dacy (facilitator) at kwhitedacy@gmail.com.

1st and 3rd Wednesdays each month | 1:00 p.m. | Room 214

This group meets every Monday night at 6:30 pm in Room 214.

Grief Support Group

Grief is a path we all walk at some point in our lives. If you’ve experienced a recent loss please consider joining us. We will share our stories and honor our loved ones. A variety of readings and a workbook to help us chart our way forward. We will take this walk together and find strength in the loving support of our fellow travelers.

DFW Concussion Support Group

The DFW Concussion Support Group is here to provide care to people who are dealing with concussions and those that support them. Those who have had Post Concussion Syndrome and would like to offer support are always welcome as well. Additionally, this group is open to those in the community who would like to learn more about concussions and their impact on those affected. During each meeting, there is time for family, friends, and caregivers to meet separately and focus on the topics that impact them most. For more information, contact Kristi Ferguson at DFWConcussion@gmail.com or 214.718.7464.
