The goal of the Caregiver Resource Center is to help older citizens continue to live in the community as long as possible by assisting their caregiving family members with the following services:

• Caregiver Respite:  Staff providers are trained to go into homes for 2 to 4 hours, providing the caregiver with a break.
• Information about, and help with, accessing services.
• The Resource Center has a lending library of books, video tapes and periodicals pertaining to caregiving and aging.
