Sponsored by the Caregiver Support Program and the Pennsylvania Link to Aging and Disability Resources, the 2017 Caregiver Academy seeks to provide tools and training for family caregivers. Caregivers and Care Receivers are invited to attend. While caregivers attend their session, care receivers participate in their own activity to enjoy. Session 2 was titled "A Matter of Balance: Fall Prevention and Safety in the Home" presented by Mary O'Sullivan and Jess Lowy from Crozer. While caregivers attended this session, care receivers participated in a brain stimulating exercise using a memory card game.
