SUMMARY:Unity in Care: Exploring Cultural Differences
DESCRIPTION:A powerful conversation on how culture\, values\, and lived experience shape caregiving—and universal themes that bring caregivers together.\n\n\n\n  \nCaregiving is a deeply meaningful role that is shaped by culture\, family traditions\, values\, and lived experience. In this engaging webinar\, “Title”\, caregivers and community voices come together for this panel discussion exploring how caregiving is experienced across different cultural backgrounds. \nPanelists will share personal stories and insights into how culture can influence expectations\, family roles\, communication\, and approaches to care. While cultural perspectives on caregiving may differ—ranging from who provides care\, how decisions are made\, and when outside help is sought—this conversation will also highlight the common experiences that connect caregivers across all cultures. Themes such as love\, responsibility\, stress\, resilience\, and the need for understanding and support are universal. \nThe discussion will also emphasize that caregiving supports and resources exist for everyone\, regardless of cultural background. Participants will be encouraged to reflect on their own caregiving journey\, gain greater cultural awareness\, and learn how to access supports that respect and align with their values. \nThis webinar is open to caregivers of all backgrounds and anyone interested in building more inclusive\, culturally responsive caregiving communities. \nHost: Johnna Lowther\, Director of Programs and Services\, Caregivers Alberta

SUMMARY:Caring Beyond Today: Planning for What Comes Next
DESCRIPTION:Learn how thoughtful future planning can ease stress\, honour wishes\, and safeguard your loved ones.\n\n\n\nPlanning for the future can feel overwhelming—especially when it involves sensitive topics like wills\, estates\, and securities. Yet for caregivers\, thinking ahead is one of the most meaningful ways to protect the people they support and ensure their own wishes are honoured. This webinar is designed to provide caregivers with clear\, compassionate guidance on future planning and lasting gift considerations. \nCaregivers will learn why having a will and estate plan matters\, how securities and other assets can be structured as part of a thoughtful legacy\, and the real-life implications of delaying or avoiding these conversations. Without a plan\, families may face unnecessary stress\, legal complications\, and uncertainty during already difficult times. With a plan\, caregivers gain peace of mind\, clarity\, and confidence that their and theirs loved one’s values will carry forward. \nThis webinar brings together professional expertise and lived experience\, creating a supportive space to begin—or continue—this important journey of planning ahead and caring forward. \nHost: Keith Johnston: Advisor Strategic Partnerships\, Caregivers Alberta
