SUMMARY:Rise Caregivers Collective presents Re:Sisters Arntzen Sisters Gillian Hobbs Jane Slemon
DESCRIPTION:\nWe are a collective of singers and songwriters using music to shine light on and bring support to family caregivers. We want to bring caregivers, their families, service agencies, health researchers, and political leadership together to encourage systems change in improving outcomes for family caregivers.\n\n\nRise Caregivers Collective exists to make the important work of caregivers valued and visible. We know caregivers support your clients, our loved ones. Caregivers  enrich our society as a whole. Caregivers build connections with the community. We minimize social isolation in older adults and foster friendships. The unpaid work of family caregiving, impacts at least one quarter of Canadian households, and these impacts are increasing with each passing day.\n\n\nThrough music gatherings our goal is to create connective, productive networks to support family caregivers. We strongly believe they need to be recognized and supported as equal to caregivers in long term care settings.\n\n\nThis is a Free event. However, if you wish to support this initiative, your donation will be used to support caregivers. Donations can be made in person at the event, or by e-transfer at: risecaregivers@gmail.com\n\nWhere: Notional Space, 1523 East Pender, Vancouver, BC\nWhen: Doors Open at 1:30 pm. Music starts at 2:00 pm\nsongs, stories, uplift:\n\nsystem change\nfor family caregivers\nall ages, alcohol-free\n\nthis is a gift economy event, with RSVP\nmore information: risecaregivers@gmail.com ( mailto:risecaregivers@gmail.com )\n
