Events & Calendars Caregiver Sessions

As you may recall, the college asked faculty and staff with caregiving responsibilities to participate in an anonymous survey last fall. The goal was to learn more about how members of our community are doing with managing the demands of work and caregiving during the pandemic.

As part of its response to the survey, the Office of Human Resources is now offering sessions that will provide a forum for caregivers to connect and to share their experiences with one another, including strategies that they have developed to cope with what they are facing. Facilitators may also pass along to HR helpful suggestions that may emerge from these conversations.

Each session will be limited to 25 participants. Additional dates will be added if needed and/or if participants would like to reconvene.

Jodi Foley and Laurie Frankl will be facilitating the sessions. If you have questions, please reach out to them via email at jfoley@amherst.edu or lfrankl@amherst.edu.
