Café for Care Partners by Shane Farrell, ARTZ Philadelphia
Community program provides respite for caregivers with creative projects and nature walks in the Philadelphia area

Work Description
We launched this series of programs especially for the care partners of people living with dementia (usually family members but sometimes close friends playing the same role) to provide engaging, stimulating experiences and relief from the daily grind. These programs provide a chance to find respite from the demands of care, attend to one’s own needs, and connect with other care partners. From nature walks in local gardens to fun crafting projects these programs encourage care partners to make time for self-care.
