Education

Del Oro CRC is proud to offer both in-person and online classes.

During the COVID-19 pandemic and following guidelines from the State of CA and CDC, we moved much of our programming online to ZOOM. Over the next several months, as California begins to reopen, we will begin offering in-person classes again; please stay tuned!

 

Evidence-Based Classes

Dealing with Dementia: Dealing with Dementia (DWD) is a FREE, evidence-based workshop that helps family caregivers gain practical skills and approaches to caring for loved ones with dementia diagnoses.


Powerful Tools for Caregivers: Powerful Tools for Caregivers (PTC) is a FREE evidence-based course designed for family caregivers of adults with chronic or disabling health conditions, (such as Alzheimer’s/dementia, Parkinson’s, stroke). Led by certified and experienced class leaders at Del Oro over six (6) weekly sessions, PTC offers practical tools for reducing stress, making difficult decisions, communicating more effectively, and preventing burnout.

Join us in 2023 for this unique collaboration among Del Oro CRC, the Alzheimer’s Association and Senior Care Solutions , which offers classes each season to address different aspects of the caregiving journey.
