About this Event
Parents and caregivers (adoptive, foster, guardianship, kinship/relative, and reunified caregivers who reside in Wisconsin) - you deserve a day for YOU! We invite you to take a night away and join the Wisconsin Family Connections Center to focus on caring for yourself. Attend as an individual or as a couple, both are welcome! Our speaker, Chelsey Coulthurst, will guide us through the day with a presentation entitled "Caregiver Reset: A Day for You." This day is meant to incorporate connection, learning, rest and reset to help you re-charge.
