Caregivers Empowering Caregivers: Writers Guild Initiative
Advertisement
Join fellow military caregivers for a two-part creative writing workshop with Writers Guild Initiative. You'll work in small groups with professional writers as mentors, and you'll have time and space to put your own experiences into words. Writers of every level are welcome. Whether you once kept a diary or you've finished a manuscript, you belong here. You can write in a notebook, on your laptop, or on your phone. We'll provide notebooks, pens, breakfast, and lunch.
This is a two-day workshop. The second session continues the work from the first, so signing up registers you for both Saturdays. Please register only if you can attend both days.
Who is a caregiver?
Blue Star Families invites you to self-identify as a caregiver. This can include caregivers of wounded, ill, or injured service members and veterans, caregivers of children with special needs, and those caring for aging parents. If caregiving is part of your life, this event is for you.
When: Saturday, November 7 and Saturday, November 14, 2026, 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM (both days)
Where: Fort Wadsworth, Staten Island, NY (455 USS Tennessee Rd, Staten Island, NY 10305, USA)
If getting to Staten Island is a challenge, let us know when you register and we'll work with you on transportation.
