Caring for an aging parent is an act of love—but it can also be physically, emotionally, and mentally exhausting. ACAP Cobb & Cherokee will present a free educational program, “Knowing Your Limits and Creating Balance as a Caregiver,” on Thursday, August 21, 2025, from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. ET at Covenant Presbyterian Church – Kapperman-Williams Hall, 2881 Canton Road, Marietta, GA.
Many adult children begin caregiving by helping with occasional tasks—visiting more often, paying bills, or arranging medical appointments. Over time, the responsibilities often grow to include meal preparation, home maintenance, transportation, and ongoing medical care. While most caregivers want to provide support, the increased demands can lead to feelings of resentment, frustration, and guilt.
This program will explore the emotional complexities of caregiving, including caregiver guilt, and offer practical strategies for setting boundaries, balancing the needs of parents with personal and family responsibilities, and ensuring the caregiver’s own health and well-being.
The featured presenter, Elizabeth Miller, is the Host of the Happy Healthy Caregiver podcast, a Certified Caregiving Consultant, and a Certified Senior Advisor. Drawing from both her professional expertise and personal caregiving journey, Miller will provide real-world tools and insights to help caregivers find a sustainable balance.
ACAP Cobb & Cherokee is a chapter of ACAPcommunity.org, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides free, monthly educational programs, resources, and community for adult children caring for aging parents.
