Caregivers, you’re invited!

Join us for the Savvy Caregiver Mixer—an innovative social extension of the nationally recognized Savvy Caregiver Program, created to support those caring for loved ones living with dementia.

This is a space for you. A chance to connect with others who understand, build practical skills, and take a moment to recharge in a welcoming, supportive environment.

The goal is simple: reduce isolation, ease stress, and strengthen a community of caregivers who shouldn’t have to do this alone.

This gathering is made possible through the support of the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America, along with partners like the Fleming Foundation and United Way of the Greater Lehigh Valley—thoughtfully backing something that puts caregivers first.
