Mindful Coping and Communication in Caregiving<\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n

A Telephone-Based Mindfulness Program for Caregivers of an African American Family Member Living with Dementia<\/h3>\n

African Americans are at greater risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease or related dementia, and families caring for a person living with dementia may experience high stress, breakdown in communication, and even conflict.<\/p>\n

Mindfulness skills may help caregiving families cope with stress, take better care of themselves, and support one another through these challenges.<\/p>\n

Participants in this research study will take part in group mindfulness sessions from the comfort of their homes. Led by a trained and experienced mindfulness instructor, caregiving pairs (a primary caregiver and another care partner who provides support) will call into weekly one-hour phone sessions with several other caregiving families.<\/p>\n

Together, you will participate in practices and discussions designed to help calm the mind, ease stress, and promote family communication and support.<\/p>\n
